DESCRIPTION
Pleasant Terrace really does live up to its name; within a short walk of St Just town, but equally a short walk from Cot Valley and Cape Cornwall - with sea views to boot! This extremely deceptive cottage offers flexible, spacious accommodation throughout, with off street parking to the rear and very well-considered gardens to the front and rear.
This beautiful property has an envy-inducing kitchen/diner bathed in natural light, as well as two further reception rooms (with a total of three multi-fuel stoves) and a utility and WC on the ground floor. The ground floor leads out in to a Mediterranean-inspired patio garden that steps up to an off street parking area, secured by an electric roller door to the rear access lane.
Up one of the two staircases to the first floor, and you will find three good-size double bedrooms, a fourth smaller bedroom and a very good-size bathroom that could easily be divided in half to provide two separate bathrooms for each end of this family home. The layout is flexible and befitting of a character home of this standard that has so much to offer.
To the front is a very considered front garden with a selection of native, evergreen plants that offer a high degree of privacy; while the trailing jasmine over the gate finishes the garden beautifully.
