Located in a wonderfully secluded wooded setting, April Cottage is a unique 5 bedroom family home, with 1 additional letting property, providing a rustic and charming feel yet features all the modern luxuries one would expect from a modern home of this size and value.
Having been designed by renowned local architect Barry Briscoe, April Cottage is a New England style property which oozes quality and class at every turn from the spacious bespoke open plan kitchen / dining area with vaulted ceilings to the master bedroom with generous balcony which provides the most delightful views over the manicured lawned gardens towards the coast.
The property is entered into a spacious open conservatory area which naturally flows into the open space that is the kitchen / dining area. The kitchen itself has been beautifully hand crafted and provides a wonderfully light and spacious area to cook and entertain. There is a central island unit together with a gas fired Aga and electric oven for back up. Large windows provide a glorious view across the gardens and towards the open sea. The feeling of open space is amplified more via a vaulted ceiling with exposed timber beams spanning the full length of the kitchen area.
The dining area features French doors which open onto the front terrace where again the most outstanding views over the gardens and grounds can be enjoyed. From the dining area steps descent to a sunken sitting room which features a multi fuel stove set within an impressive fireplace. Again, French doors open onto the front terrace and further steps descent to a sunken decked area which makes for a wonderful area for alfresco dining.
To complete the accommodation on this floor there is a generous double bedroom, shower room and a separate utility room and cloakroom / WC.
At first floor level there are four spacious bedrooms with the master bedroom featuring a wonderful balcony area which allows you to capture the very best views over the gardens, grounds and open sea beyond. There is also a well appointed family bathroom with separate double shower cubicle on this floor.
Externally, the majority of the gardens and grounds belong to April Cottage and comprises of a wonderful blend of formal, well manicured lawned areas coupled with natural woodland and wild flower beds. There is also a generous amount of driveway parking together with a twin carport and plenty of open space should any prospective purchaser wish to erect a garage, subject to the necessary permissions required. The beautiful beach of Carbis Bay is just 3 minutes' walk away following the footpath from the gardens through the woods whilst St Ives itself is just a 20 minute walk away.
The Studio
This fabulous, partially completed, three storey Studio has been sympathetically constructed using local materials in a fabulous position to take full advantage of the wonderful coastal views.
Planning permission states that this property is for use as a Studio in conjunction with April cottage, but subject to a successful application there is a strong possibility that any potential purchaser, once completed, could transfer this wonderful property into a separate dwelling.
The Studio is entered at first floor level via a large decked balcony which leads into the kitchen, not currently fitted, which in turn leads to a staircase which rises to the open plan second floor sitting / dining area. At entrance level there is also the master bedroom with en suite shower room.
As mentioned previously, at second floor level, there is a wonderful open space designed to be the sitting / dining area. This area has a wonderful Natural Oak vaulted ceiling with exposed timber beams. At the far end of this room bi-folding doors open to a delightful balcony with glass and chrome. From this area the most outstanding views of the sea and coastline are visible.
Accessed independently to the main Studio accommodation at ground floor level is the second bedroom with services in place to create an en suite. This area has not yet been finished and therefore provides a wonderful opportunity for any potential purchaser to create their own ideas for this space. This area would make an ideal cinema room or Gym, alternatively at a simplest form a gardener's workshop / storeroom. There is also an option to construct a swimming pool to the front of the basement (Subject to approvals)
The Gardens
Beautiful landscaped gardens create an idyllic and unique setting, offering privacy and tranquillity while also being located close to Carbis Bay beach just three minutes' walk away. A two bay oak carport and private gravel drive provides plenty of car parking and access to the gardens, while a deck area located on the terraces below the main house provides a perfect area to relax and enjoy the views and peacefulness of the location.
