The Gardens, Garage & Stables & the Land
The Gardens-
The property is bordered on both sides by a Cornish hedge with agricultural fields to one side and the lane the other. The front garden has a slab pathway to the front porch, is laid to lawn with mature trees and shrubs to the borders. The rear garden has a south facing entertaining terrace, is laid to lawn with mature trees and shrubs to the borders and at the far end of the garden a triangular wooded copse.
The Garage-
To the front of the garage is a parking area for three or more cars and to the rear is a glass greenhouse. The garage has a single up and over door which opens in to a large space which has been split in to three areas. The front area is currently used as a work shop. Behind this an insulated office and to the rear a further workshop area. To the side of the garage is a wood store however this was formerly used as a Tack Room.
The Stables-
The four spacious stables are connected to the garage, are block built with concrete flooring. To the front of the stables is a yard. To note both power and water are available.
The Land-
There is around 16 acres in total. There is a mix of grazing and moorland, a large pond and a “wilding” area. The owners used to have horses, however, have not used the land for grazing for over 10 years as such a little work will be required to bring it back. Much of the land is overgrown as such it would be a great project to bring back in to use. The field next to the stables is now open and would require fencing to be installed if animals were to be introduced. Also in this field is a large sheltered and fenced vegetable plot with a couple of raised beds.
Please note:- There is water supply to the grazing fields.

Location
Cold Harbour Cottage in the hamlet of Cold Harbour is in the Parish of Towednack. Situated just three miles from the centre of St Ives Towednack is a largely agricultural parish in West Penwith, an area, most of which, is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
The unique landscape is a mix of lowland wetland, moorland, and agricultural land. The diverse landscape supports a wide variety of plant and animal species, many of which are rarely found in other counties and some of which are exclusive to West Cornwall. Skies are dark, the Milky Way can be seen easily on clear nights.
Towednack boasts an active community and although there is no longer any local shop or post office there is an excellent village school, Nancledra School, a village hall and a local pub, The Engine Inn at Cripplesease, along with an excellent bus service to St Ives and Penzance.
Cornwall’s unique character comes from its historic landscape and some 400 miles of spectacular coastline. Home to the landmark Tate St Ives Gallery (built in 1993) and the famous Barbara Hepworth Museum, St Ives is bordered by three beautiful sandy beaches which are repeatedly voted among the best in the British Isles, one particularly for surfing. Set against the colourful backdrop of the working fishing harbour, the turquoise waters of St. Ives have attracted artists since the 19th century due to its renowned clarity of light. The town, with winding cobbled streets, is also a ‘foodie’ destination packed with numerous restaurants, pubs and cafes all offering excellent fare including the award-winning Porthminster Beach Café.
At nearby Lelant, overlooking the Hayle Estuary there is a spectacular links golf course with views stretching up towards Godrevy Lighthouse. A scenic branch railway line links Carbis Bay and St. Ives with the main London-Penzance line at nearby St. Erth.
