Location
Set in about 3.18 acres in an elevated location with stunning uninterrupted views of St Michaels Mount and Mounts Bay
The property and Barn are in need of renovation. The Cottage is of quirky internal design with a gothic feel. The rooms flow into each other with the only internal door being to the bathroom on the first floor.
The Cottage
The front door opens from a covered porch with cobbled floor in to a semi-circular room with three windows with built in cupboards in to the bay with a tiled work surface, a sink in the centre and shelving to the rear. An arch opens in to a kitchen/dining room with a colourfully painted ceiling, herringbone parquet flooring, a recessed Aga and shelving and cupboards to either side. There is a window with window seat with views out across the bay and a stable door that opens out to a cobbled terraced area.
To the left of the kitchen dining room is an arch with a step up in to a reception room with beamed ceiling, wooden floor and fireplace.
Stairs ascend to the first floor which mirrors the layout of downstairs having an room with a window overlooking the land and views to Mounts Bay, a door in to the bathroom and a step up in to a further room which has a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and a Velux window.
