Description

Nestled in the heart of the historic mining landscape of Higher Bal, St Agnes — a designated UNESCO World Heritage Site — Beaconsway is a charming end-of-terrace cottage offering character, comfort, and a truly special location. Just a short distance from the breathtaking National Trust-maintained South West Coast Path, this property is perfectly positioned for those seeking coastal walks, community charm, and heritage surroundings.  The popular beaches of Trevaunance Cove (1 mile) and Chapel Porth (2 miles) are easily accessible on foot from the coast path or by road.

The accommodation is well laid out and ideal for both full-time living and holiday use. The welcoming living room features a cosy log-burning stove and leads through double doors into a spacious kitchen/dining room with direct access out to the enclosed rear garden. A practical utility area and a downstairs shower room complete the ground floor.

Upstairs, the property offers three well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom. The front-facing bedrooms benefit from glimpses of the sea, while the rear bedroom enjoys delightful views across to St Agnes Beacon.

The rear garden is fully enclosed and thoughtfully landscaped, featuring a patio area for outdoor dining, steps up to a lawned section, and a charming stone-built outbuilding currently used for storage.  Subject to necessary consents this could potentially be converted into a home office or studio.

While not included on the title, the current owners have consistently used and maintained a parking space adjacent to the property.

Beaconsway presents a rare opportunity to own a slice of Cornish history in a truly picturesque and sought-after location.
