Cape Cornwall, St. Just, Penzance, Cornwall, TR19

Charming coastal cottage with stunning sea views and 1.7 acres

Description

Finished with a sophisticated yet understated coastal aesthetic, Cove Cottage offers beautifully presented accommodation designed to make the most of its exceptional setting. The welcoming open plan sitting and dining room is centred around a wood-burning stove and opens onto a south-east facing terrace, creating a seamless connection between inside and out. A well-appointed shower room and utility room sit to the rear, while the contemporary galley kitchen, fitted with sleek white cabinetry and contrasting dark worktops, enjoys glimpses of the sea. Beyond lies a stunning vaulted garden room, where floor-to-ceiling glazing and French doors frame breathtaking coastal views and flood the space with natural light. On the first floor are three bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with magnificent sea views, together with a family bathroom and useful storage.

Outside, a slate-flagged terrace wraps around the south and east elevations, providing sheltered seating areas and wonderful vantage points from which to enjoy the spectacular coastal outlook and evening sunsets. The gardens descend through a series of attractive terraced lawns to a paddock below, creating a rare sense of space and privacy. At the lower end of the grounds is a substantial south-west facing fisherman’s shed, ideal for the storage of kayaks and other recreational equipment, with gated access leading towards the slipway path. The building has previously benefited from planning permission for conversion to a studio, presenting an exciting opportunity for future enhancement, subject to any necessary consents.
