Recently refurbished, 19th century three bedroom cottage just 300 metres from the centre of Mousehole with quite magnificent views out over the harbour, St Clements Island and Mousehole.
Built at the turn of the 19th century, Rosedean is located on Raginnis Hill, just 300 metres above the centre of the village and harbour. The property sits above the level of the road and has superb views both over Mousehole and the harbour along with sweeping views out across Mounts Bay with St Michaels Mount clearly visible in the distance. The property has recently undergone a full refurbishment by the current owners to include both rewiring, plumbing and redecoration whilst maintaining its character and many original features to include exposed granite walls in some of the rooms.
The House
Ground Floor Three granite steps ascend from the front terrace to the main entrance. The front door, which has stained glass panels both above and to the sides, opens in to the hall with the stairs to the first floor ahead, the main reception room on the right and to the rear the kitchen dining room. The main reception room has two exposed granite walls, a fireplace with slate hearth and French doors opening on to the front terrace. The kitchen dining room at the rear has two sash windows overlooking the rear courtyard, exposed granite walls, two recessed fireplaces (not working) and a door to the rear porch. There are white shaker style kitchen units with solid wood work surfaces and a ceramic sink and drainer. The rear porch has plumbing for a washing machine, space for coats and shoes and a door leading out to the rear courtyard.
First Floor Stairs ascend to the first-floor landing off which are three bedrooms, all with original stripped pine floors and sash windows and the family bathroom.
Two of the bedrooms are to the front of the property, one a single and one a double both with fabulous sea views with the third, also a double, overlooking the rear courtyard and hillside. The family bathroom has a sink, WC, bath with hand held shower and a separate walk in shower (electric). Also in the bathroom is the loft hatch with a drop down ladder. The loft is boarded and contains the hot water tank.
Gardens and exterior
Front
A granite wall fronts the property with steps up from the road. Spanning the width of the property is a small terrace which has great views out over Mousehole village and harbour, Mounts Bay and of St Michaels Mount in the distance. There is space for a small table and chairs or bench.
Rear Courtyard and Upper Deck
To the rear is an enclosed courtyard. Being built on the side of a steep hillside the owners have created a terraced garden area with at the top a raised deck area which takes full advantage of the sea views over Mount's Bay. There is a side access gate allowing access to the rear garden from the front of the property.
To Note
1. There is a right of way from across the back of the property for the properties to the side.
2. The property has no allocated parking but there is on-road parking along Raginnis Hill.
