Description
Substantial Guest House with owners accommodation and detached ancillary set in over an acre of grounds on the outskirts of St. Ives.
Situation - The Countryman enjoys a prime location on the outskirts of the ever-popular St Ives, nestled along the scenic country road. Offering the perfect balance of tranquility and convenience, it sits just beyond the town's bustle while remaining moments from its stunning beaches and dramatic coastline.
The Property - Spanning 4,500 sq ft over three floors on roughly one acre of landscaped gardens, this property offers mature lawns, shrubs, and trees for a peaceful retreat.
A gravelled front parking area leads to a welcoming foyer and bright, spacious interiors. The ground floor includes a dining room (currently The Countryman's breakfast room), a characterful lounge with a wood-burning stove, a bar flowing into a sunroom with garden views, a utility/storage room, WC, rear access, and both a modern commercial kitchen and private pantry.
The first floor combines guest and owner accommodations: three en-suite guest rooms, a storeroom/office, and private owner's quarters with two bedrooms, a sitting room with garden access, and a family bathroom.
The second floor features three double bedrooms, each with en-suite, maintaining the property's high-quality finish throughout.
Ancillary Accommodation - In addition to the main residence and guest accommodations, the property also features a charming, self-contained detached one-bedroom ancillary unit.
Outside - Set within approximately 1.5 acres, The Countryman is discreetly tucked back from a quiet country road, nestled within its own gardens. The grounds offer a variety of serene spaces for relaxation or entertaining, providing a true countryside retreat.
At the front of the property, a spacious gravelled area-currently used for guest parking-is bordered by traditional Cornish hedging, offering both privacy and charm. To one side of the entrance, a versatile outbuilding, currently operating as a farm shop, adds to the property's appeal.
Wrapping around three sides of the house, the expansive rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn, interspersed with mature trees and established shrubs. This beautifully landscaped space creates a peaceful sanctuary, perfect for enjoying the tranquility of the surroundings.
