About this property
Set in the idyllic location of St Ives, this beautifully refurbished Victorian retreat enjoys sea views from the second floor. Set on a quiet back street, right in the centre of the town, it’s the ultimate family-friendly getaway for anyone looking to answer the call of the Cornish coast. The picturesque harbour town of St Ives comprises a maze of narrow cobbled streets, independent shops, fisherman’s cottages and some of the tastiest restaurants and cafes in the South West. Discover the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden, less than half a mile away, which features over 30 impressive sculptures set in beautifully landscaped gardens. Walk to the crescent of golden sand of Porthminster Beach, half a mile away, and enjoy a safe swim or leisurely relax in a deck chair. Hop aboard the famed St Ives Bay Line (0.5 miles) to enjoy some of Cornwall’s most scenic coastal views down to the charming village of St Erth, 6 miles away.
Kick off your beach shoes in the entrance hall before heading into the spacious open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner to relax after a busy day of adventures. With a calming neutral colour scheme, a combination of wooden flooring and flagstone tiles, and sophisticated contemporary decor, this seaside sanctuary offers everything you need to unwind, cook, and dine with loved ones. Adjacent to the kitchen, you’ll find a useful utility room. On the first floor, you’ll find three bedrooms filled with cosy touches to ensure a peaceful night's sleep. These include a king-size zip-and-link bedroom (which can be made into a twin on request), a double bedroom with an en-suite shower room, and a bunk bedroom (single over double bed). There is also a stylish, contemporary family bathroom on this level. The second floor features a spacious king-size bedroom with an en-suite shower room, plush sofas, a high vaulted ceiling, and breathtaking sea views.
Accessed via the set of French doors off the kitchen, the quaint shared courtyard provides the perfect peaceful spot to enjoy your morning coffee at sunrise or a glass of fizz at sundown. Parking is available in a public car park less than half a mile away. With your location being so central and so many amenities and attractions within walking distance, you might not need your car until you depart.
