Description

An impeccably presented open plan link detached cottage, enviably located just moments from the stunning beach and the heart of the charming and ever popular coastal village of Coverack.

As its name implies this handsome cottage was once the 'Old Carpenter's Workshop' and past incumbents would admire the quality of the crafted finishes and bespoke detailing in existence today.

Presented to an exacting standard throughout, the cottage is beautifully furnished and has successfully operated as a holiday let over recent years. Delightfully situated in a genuinely tucked away location, the cottage could make the perfect bolthole or coastal escape for buyers or provide a comfortable and stylish low maintenance home for discerning purchasers.

The open plan living space is fresh and contemporary and a joy to spend time in. Light filled and vibrant the cottage has a stylish and well appointed kitchen and a modern wood burning stove - perfect for those cosy nights in during Autumn and Winter.

On the first floor the chic master bedroom and thoughtfully conceived ensuite bathroom add a pleasing splash of comfort and luxury, whilst affording elevated views to the cove and sea beyond from twin Velux windows.

The outside patio garden enjoys a southerly outlook and offers the versatility of an off road parking space to suit.

The accommodation in brief comprises an open plan kitchen/lounge/dining area and a master bedroom with an ensuite bathroom. The cottage benefits from double glazing and modern, programmable, white electric 'warehouse style' column radiators.

Coverack itself is a Cornish fishing village situated on the Lizard Peninsula, which has been designated as an area of outstanding natural beauty. The Cove itself has a lovely sandy beach which is a popular centre for water sports that include windsurfing, stand-up paddle boarding, sailing and diving. There is an attractive harbour from which a small fleet of traditional fishing boats operate and land their daily catch. There is a public house, restaurants, a shop selling local produce and a primary school. St Keverne village is a short drive away and has a number of shops, including a butcher's and doctors surgery whilst comprehensive schooling can be found in the nearby village of Mullion. The bustling market town of Helston which has more extensive amenities including national stores and supermarkets, is some eight miles distant.

About Christophers, Helston

5 Wendron Street, Helston, TR13 8PT
Industry affiliations:Industry affiliation logo 0Industry affiliation logo 1Industry affiliation logo 2

Christophers Estate Agents is an independent estate agency that was started with a view of providing "pure traditional estate agency".

The company was established in 2002 and has an experienced team who for many years have dealt with property in this district.

We are indeed privileged to work in an area of such natural beauty. Helston is the gateway and commercial centre for the Lizard Peninsula and provides a range of national stores, Comprehensive School, College, Sports Centre with indoor swimming pool and a Cinema. The town is linked to the coast by the beautiful Penrose Estate which is also home to Cornwall's largest natural fresh water lake at Loe Pool.

To the west our area skirts around Mount's Bay and it encompasses a number of highly regarded villages and attractive areas of open countryside.

Flora Day is the most important day in the Helston calendar. It takes place at the beginning of May each year and although it's origins are lost in the mists of time it is believed to have been performed by the townsfolk for hundreds if not thousands of years. During the day four Furry dances take place the first one starting at 7.00 a.m. in the morning! Thousands of people throng the streets of this Ancient Market town to welcome in the Spring. The principal dance takes place at 12 noon with the gentleman in morning suits and top hats and the ladies wearing long colourful dresses with splendid hats.
