About this property
A traditional listed Cornish cottage with glimpses of the sea and St Michaels Mount from upstairs, set in a pretty little walled and gated front garden close to the 14th century Parish Church at Madron, a few minutes drive from the attractive town of Penzance.
A low stable door opens under heavy blooms of wisteria in summer, directly into a charming beamed living room which spans the whole width of the cottage, with a massive open granite hearth at one end. At the rear of the cottage is a well equipped neat kitchen with some fitted units, and a bathroom W.C. with hand basin and bath with shower attachment. A glazed back door opens to a private and sunny garden fully enclosed which can be seen from the kitchen window.
In one corner of the sitting room, cottage stairs twist up to two appealing pleasantly furnished bedrooms with double and twin beds respectively. Both are carpeted and have low windows set into thick walls with window seats and a distant view between the rooftops below of the glinting waters of Mounts Bay. Steep stairs make this property unsuitable for toddlers and the elderly may also have difficulty.
Madron has a village pub which serves food. Penzance and Mounts Bay with extensive shops and beaches are under 10 minutes drive and the Isles of Scilly are easily accessible via the ferry service. It is possible to park on the road outside the cottage and there is a free village car park 75 yards away.
