Ellis Winters are delighted to offer ‘Scenic Cottage’, a truly unique home set in a picturesque rural position on the edge of the historic market town of St Ives, offering countryside surroundings while remaining within easy walking distance of St Ives and its amenities.

Beautifully extended and comprehensively renovated by the current owners, the property now provides approximately 1,750 sq ft of versatile accommodation, set within a plot of around 0.6 acres (STS). There is also the option to acquire an additional 0.9 acre (STS) paddock to the rear, available by separate negotiation, which offers further potential including income generation through the continuation of the established caravan storage business.

The accommodation is exceptionally flexible, comprising three/four bedrooms and two/three reception rooms. A versatile ground floor room is currently used as a home office but lends itself equally well as a fourth bedroom. In addition, there are two further reception spaces, alongside a wonderful refitted kitchen/breakfast room with bi-folding doors opening directly onto the landscaped rear garden.

The principal bedroom is a standout feature, benefitting from an en suite bathroom and a private balcony enjoying far-reaching south-westerly countryside views. Further accommodation includes a modern utility room, family bathroom, and cloakroom.

Externally, the home continues to impress. The property occupies a plot of approximately 0.6 acres (STS), with a beautifully maintained south-westerly facing rear garden. To the front, a gravel driveway provides ample off-road parking.

A viewing is essential to fully appreciate the setting, outstanding views, quality of finish, and the lifestyle opportunity this exceptional home provides.
