About this property
Tucked away under the eaves of one of the most historic buildings in Fore Street this modern and stylish two-bedroom apartment has been thoughtfully designed to combine an eye-catching interior with the original vaulted ceilings and dormer windows. Originally the building was one of the first hotels in St Ives and has recently been redeveloped to create three contemporary holiday homes. This property is in the heart of St Ives, with multiple beaches and the harbour within 800 metres, and numerous eateries, boutiques, and bars all close by. Due to the apartment’s central location, it can get busy and noisy at peak times of the year. There is double glazing throughout, but earplugs may be required for light sleepers. Tate St Ives and the home of sculptor Barbara Hepworth are just around the corner. Further afield, visit the Minack Theatre (18 miles), or Porthcurno, Land’s End, or St Michael’s Mount, all within 20 miles.
After entering the main property from the shared entrance, head up three floors to find this wonderful penthouse apartment, offering an incredibly spacious open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. The kitchen is ultra-modern with in-built appliances and an abundance of cupboard and counter space including a small breakfast bar. The lounge and dining area has three lovely dormer windows – each with charming window seats, and a beautiful view, and even more light floods into the kitchen from the large Velux windows. The clean lines and vaulted ceilings enhance the living space, where you can wind down in front of the Smart TV on one of two comfy sofas, or enjoy a meal on the bistro style dining table which provides the perfect space for a sociable evening over a delicious meal or a captivating board game. The welcoming king-size bedroom has a soothing ambience where you can enjoy gorgeous sea views from the comfort of your bed (space around the bottom of the bed is limited so mind your head in the eaves!). The twin bedroom is a light and bright space. Both are stylishly furnished, and benefit from good lighting and plenty of storage. Finally, there is a beautiful and contemporary family shower room.
Although there is no outside space, the beach and all amenities are moments from the doorstep.
