Rock Lobster, Hill Street, Padstow
£575,000
Beautifully renovated character cottage perched just above the town with private parking and enclosed garden.
Perched above the winding streets of Padstow, 15 Hill Street is an elegantly re-imagined Cornish cottage which offers a perfect blend of historic charm and contemporary comfort. Currently a very successful holiday let, this lovely property is an ideal lock up and leave retreat, just a few minutes’ walk from the harbour and town centre.
The ground floor has been reconfigured to create a stylish living space, complete with a cosy log burner set within a slate heart, adding to the warmth and character of the room. Dual aspect windows and a timber staircase featuring glass risers create a light and airy feel, which is complemented by the interior décor. Flagstone flooring leads to the kitchen, accessed via a step bearing the 1878 date stone of the cottage which came from the property’s original well, a reminder of the home’s historic past. The kitchen is a generous size, with contemporary units and whitewashed walls creating a sunny, coastal feel, aided by two light tunnels which funnel daylight from above. A useful stable door leads to the parking space, and there is ample room for dining.
Follow the staircase to the first floor, where a hallway gives direct access to the rear garden, as well as the two bedrooms and family bathroom. A large, sunny bedroom sits to the rear of the house, with French doors that open onto a pretty, decked area and the garden beyond. The second bedroom is configured as a comfortable twin, and benefits from a vaulted ceiling that adds to the feeling of light and space. This bedroom features an ensuite WC, and there is an additional family bathroom, with modern, fresh tiling and shower over bath.
15 Hill Street has a superb, enclosed garden, with a decked area adjacent to the rear of the cottage, and a raised lawn leading to a useful garden outbuilding. This delightful garden is designed to make the most of the sun, whilst offering a private and secure space to relax.
This lovely cottage has recently undergone a comprehensive refurbishment scheme which included a new roof, ceilings and floors, the installation of gas, new plumbing, and electrics throughout, and a positive pressure ventilation system. The property’s original flagstone flooring has been lovingly restored, and Karndean flooring laid through the remainder of the home.
