No 18 Trenwith Terrace is a stylish and characterful terraced townhouse in an ideal location, close to St Ives town centre, beaches, and harbour, and has the fantastic benefit of a large private parking space, and an enclosed terraced garden space, perfect for summer evening barbecues - making it a perfect family, 2nd or memorable holiday home!
The stylish accommodation is set over three storeys and consists of, on the ground floor, an enclosed entrance lobby, an open plan living dining room, and a kitchen breakfast room. On the first floor, there are some sea and coastal views from the front of the house, two double bedrooms, and a large family bathroom. On the 2nd floor, there is an attic master bedroom with gorgeous views from a large (new) dormer window out over the town to the bay, lighthouses, and northern coastline.
Recently refurbished by the current owners - the work included new windows, back door, new main and flat roofs, a large new remote-controlled skylight in the kitchen, a new boiler, and an updated aerial/satellite system - viewing of this fabulous house to appreciate all it has to offer is highly recommended.
