Description
Situated at the quiet, far end of the charming old village of Portwrinkle, 1 Coastguard Cottages offers an idyllic coastal retreat with breathtaking sea views and a southerly aspect. As the name implies, this is a historic coastguard cottage which is steeped in history and charm. It provides the perfect blend of traditional character and modern comforts, making it an ideal home for those seeking tranquility and a connection to nature. Enjoy panoramic sea views from the rooms at the front of the cottage including of the famous Eddystone lighthouse. The cottage retains many original features, including exposed beams and period fixtures, and offers a unique and cosy living space. The back garden abuts the South West coast path making it a good spot for walkers and the Whitsand Bay golf course is a few moments way at the other end of the village. The harbour and beach are within a few minutes walk of the cottage where many people swim and canoe. The golden sands of Whitsand Bay are a short drive away.
Upon arrival, enter into the warm and welcoming porch that is shared with the adjoining cottage. The ground floor comprises a cosy lounge situated at the front, featuring an open fire, stripped polished floorboards, beamed ceiling, and a window offering sea views.
The kitchen/dining room, located at the rear, features a modern kitchen with a built-in oven, hob, and slimline dishwasher. The slate tiled floor and splashback add to the contemporary feel. A window overlooks the rear, and a door provides access to outside storage and the tiered gardens.
On the first floor, the landing provides access to the bathroom, two bedrooms, and boat cabin-style steps leading to the loft room. The family bathroom, situated at the rear, includes a suite comprising a WC, a pedestal wash hand basin, and a panelled bath with a shower over. The first bedroom, positioned at the front, offers stunning sea views, while the second bedroom is located at the rear of the property with garden views. An alternating tread staircases leads up to the loft room with restricted head height; a versatile space ideal for an office or hobby room, offering beautiful sea views.
Externally, the property offers convenient parking for two cars at the front and beautifully tiered gardens at the rear. The first paved area is secluded and sheltered. The higher decked area presents panoramic sea views over the top of the cottages from Rame Head to the left and Looe island to the right. There are lovely countryside views to the rear. Just a short stroll along the southwest coastal path lies a large second garden, ideal for children to play in, for cultivating home-grown produce or hosting gatherings with friends and family. Additional features include a storage shed, under-deck storage, and a wood store. The sunset views can be spectacular from the garden which is also a great spot for star gazing.
