    About this property

    • 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.

    Local information

    • Mousehole is one of Cornwall's most loved harbours. Timeless and evocative of a bygone era, small streets and alleyways wind around the sandy harbour. Cliff paths lead in both directions along spectacular coastline to secret coves. Perhaps more than any other part of the county, West Cornwall embodies these qualities, blessed with stunning white powdered shell beaches and crystal clear blue water for some of the best water sports and diving in the UK.
    • Once referred to as 'The loveliest village in England' by Dylan Thomas, Mousehole's pretty stone cottages, fine restaurants, the famous Ship Inn, the Old Coastguard Hotel, Hole Foods Deli & Café and art galleries are clustered around the small medieval harbour.
    • Newlyn, just over two miles away, is a very vibrant place. Famous for both its historic and current fishing industry as well as the Newlyn School of Artists of the late 19th century. Lying on the shore of Mount's Bay, Newlyn is one of the largest fishing ports in the UK. It lies adjacent to some of the richest fishing grounds in the Northern hemisphere and is the fulcrum of Cornwall's fishing industry. The South West's main fish market is in Newlyn and just opposite the harbour is good selection of excellent fish shops. Newlyn is also blessed with some great restaurants, cafés, bars, a specialist cheese shop, an excellent coffee shop, a traditional Cornish Ice cream shop and an independent cinema with its own restaurant.
    • The coastline around Newlyn & Penzance takes in some of the county's most beautiful beaches, to include Sennen, Porthcurno and Praa Sands. The historic town of Penzance is just five miles away has a wide range of shopping and schooling facilities. Penzance railway station provides direct trains to London Paddington and the town is now host to several well regarded restaurants and the recently refurbished Jubilee Pool.
    • The north coast is equally accessible with the town of St Ives a major attraction with its beautiful beaches, selection of high quality restaurants and its great shopping, not to forget the cultural experiences offered by Tate St Ives, the Barbara Hepworth Museum and the Bernard Leech pottery.
    • Local education - The local area is well served with schools. Mousehole has a primary school whilst Penzance has two good senior schools, Mounts Bay Academy and The Humphrey Davy School, along with the Truro and West Penwith College being excellent (Ofsted outstanding) for further education.
