About this property
Porth House with south facing courtyard garden!
Let stunning Porth House be your muse: beautiful, light and spacious elevated above the town on Bowling Green Terrace with a sunny south facing courtyard garden and on-site garage parking. This double-fronted period property has been completely refurbished to the highest standard and retains many period features, including stained glass windows and original window shutters. Just a 5 minute walk from Porthmeor and the Tate St Ives in one direction and the Harbour and Fore Street in the other, this comfortable home is ideal for groups, families or couples who want to have the space to relax in style.

The large open plan kitchen has been designed with sociable holidays in mind with a breakfast bar and bar stools and a table overlooking the garden with seating for up to 8 plus a high chair. It has traditional wood panelling, limestone floor and Silestone worktops. There is an adjoining seating area with beautiful afternoon light. All mod cons including dishwasher, fridge, electric oven and grill, gas hob, microwave, toaster etc.
Off the kitchen is a useful utility room with a WC, wash basin, washing machine, tumble dryer and plenty of storage for beach and surf gear.
Spacious sitting room with half panelled walls, wooden flooring and a large picture window with original shutters overlooking the garden. There is plenty of comfortable seating, a Smart TV and lots of books and games.
