This captivating two-bedroom refurbished fisherman's cottage boasts plenty of characterful features within striking distance of the iconic St Ives art scene and world-renowned galleries. Known as the jewel of Cornwall, St Ives is a picturesque seaside town that has been attracting painters, sculptors and ceramists for decades with its stunning scenery. Explore one of only four Tate Galleries in the world in the heart of the town, Tate St Ives, less than 0.5 miles away – it offers the best of British and International modern and contemporary art for you to enjoy. In the shadow of the Tate, stroll down to the mile-long stretch of golden sands at Porthmeor Beach for a leisurely swim in the calm turquoise waters, before exploring the quaint cobbled streets behind, full of independent shops, award-winning restaurants and cafes, plus even more museums and galleries arcing around the iconic working harbour.
Through the traditional cottage door, you’re welcomed straight into the spacious, open-plan ground floor, comprising the living, dining and kitchen areas, framed by characterful exposed brick walls and painted ceiling beams. The cosy living area boasts an inset fireplace that houses a wood burner, as well as a TV and comfortable sofas. These cleverly partition the living area away from the well-equipped farmhouse-style kitchen at the rear of the space, which features a quaint wooden table and chairs. Upstairs, you’ll find two spacious bedrooms: one double featuring an additional fold-away single bed and a TV/DVD, and a cosy twin bedroom, also with a TV/DVD. There is also a contemporary, partially tiled family bathroom.
The front of the cottage boasts a quaint courtyard, enclosed by a low stone wall and wooden gate, complete with a bistro table and chairs, creating an ideal spot to enjoy the fresh sea air whilst dining alfresco for breakfast or long into the evening.
