DESCRIPTION Toward one end of the aptly-named and sought after Pleasant Terrace in St Just, is this adorably unspoilt and well-maintained two bedroom cottage with gardens front and back as well as parking and a garage! Pleasant Terrace is a terrace of traditional granite cottages that look out across fields to the sea - enjoying fabulous sunsets and the peace and tranquility that comes from being on the fringe of the town, and a short walk from the coast at Cape Cornwall or Cot Valley. Having been in the same safe pair of hands for some years, this much-loved cottage retains some original features such as the decorative arch over the stairs in the hallway and some stain glass doors with surround panels. The living room on the ground floor runs front to back with a window at each end - there is a wonderfully decorative fireplace that could be reinstated if desired (chimney is currently capped). To the rear is a good size kitchen with a door out to the rear garden. Upstairs are two double bedrooms, the front one benefitting from those uninterrupted views out to sea and built-in storage wardrobes, the rear bedroom having a stain glass door witht he original panels either side complete with their coloured glass panes. There is a family bathroom in the middle with everything needed, including an airing cupboard with the hot water tank. To the rear is a garden mainly hardstanding with some raised beds to one side full of colourful shrubs and plants. The space is private and fully enclosed, and would be easy to alter if desired. Further, there are steps up to a timber gate that leads out to an off street parking space accessed via the rear lane, and a single garage with an up 'n' over door. There is a pretty front garden packed with hydrangeas, camelias and honeysuckle - an ideal spot to watch the sunset!
