Tucked away in a peaceful setting on the edge of the highly desirable harbourside village of Portloe, Ivy Cottage is a stunning semi-detached period home with charm, soul and style in abundance. Offering elevated sea views, exquisite interiors, and a truly magical garden, this is a rare opportunity to own a slice of the Roseland Peninsula dream.

Completely renovated in recent years under the creative eye of an interior designer, Ivy Cottage masterfully blends timeless character with contemporary comfort.

The accommodation is light, spacious, and thoughtfully designed for relaxed coastal living. The principal bedroom is a generous, dual-aspect space with sea views and a stylish en suite shower room. There are two further bedrooms, both beautifully finished, and a luxurious main bathroom featuring a freestanding bath and quality fittings.

Downstairs, the large sitting room is full of character, with exposed beams, oak flooring, and a charming fireplace with a woodburner, creating a cosy yet sophisticated feel. The separate dining room, also with stone flooring and sash windows, leads seamlessly into the bespoke Neptune kitchen. This kitchen is a real showpiece, with solid wood units, granite worktops, and top-spec appliances including a Smeg range cooker and wine cooler.

A bright garden room opens directly onto a generous decked terrace, offering a perfect transition between inside and out. There's also a separate utility room, a fully tiled wet room, and a welcoming entrance sun room with space for seating – all finished with meticulous attention to detail.

Outside
The gardens at Ivy Cottage are nothing short of enchanting. Landscaped by a professional designer, they are private, sheltered, and bursting with tropical planting. From mature hydrangeas to camellias and exotic specimens, the outdoor space feels like a hidden oasis. The large Millboard decking provides the ideal setting for al fresco dining, morning coffee, or evening drinks while enjoying views toward the sea. There’s even a hot outdoor shower – a practical and luxurious touch after days spent exploring the coastline.
