The owner, Alan Hocking, is a Cornishman raised a few miles from St. Ives. He lives and works in London and makes frequent visits back to Cornwall where his family still live.
Alan Hocking purchased this Apartment in 1994
Why Alan Hocking chose St Ives
St. Ives was my favourite place to visit as kid. We only lived 11 miles away but it felt like a world away. Like being on holiday for a day. I moved to London in 1991 vowed to buy a place in St. Ives as soon as I could scrape together a deposit. In 1994 my mum and her hilarious golf buddy, (the late and dearly missed) Joan Harvey went on the hunt and fell in love with this apartment so I pounced on it without even seeing it myself. Many years later my good friend Alan McVitty (the above-mentioned cruise liner interior designer) and cousin, Glen Prisk, stripped the place back to its four walls and remodelled it back to its former Victorian glory with a contemporary twist and yesteryear throw backs including silver-plate local photography by my grandfather, Cecil Thomas taken in the 1930's. So there's a lot of heart, soul and personal history wrapped up in the apartment as it stands today. It's a place I love to come back to and hope you will too.
