Home description
Originally built in the 1930's, St. Michael's has been totally re-built from the ground up. It enjoys truly spectacular 180 degree frontline sea views. To the east you see the Rame Peninsula, to the west Looe Island and out to sea the famous Edison lighthouse. The wildlife in the area is superb, and we've seen Dolphins swimming in front of the house.
In the kitchen we have a solid English oak table with two benches and two chairs. There's a wall mounted Panasonic LCD TV linked to Sky and a Bose ipod speaker. In the drawing room are 3 comfortable sofas and a chair. There's a 42 inch wall mounted Panasonic plasma screen with the full Sky package including HD. In all the bedrooms we have lovely white New England style beds, side tables, dressing tables and chest of draws.
The views from the kitchen/diner, the drawing room and the two upstairs suites are breathtaking. With floor to ceiling sliding french windows you feel like you're on a ship.
The large (13m x 7m) terrace has loungers, a dining set and a charcoal BBQ. It's totally private, well protected from the wind and is literally a 2 minute walk to the most stunning beach; the costal path is also less than 2 minutes away.
To the rear of the house (along a private lane) is secure parking for two vehicles and there's an additional space for a third car at the front of the property. At the far end of the garden is a small quiet country lane that leads down to the beach.

Further details indoors: We have two main bedrooms upstairs, both with double beds and en-suite bathrooms. One with bath and shower and one with shower. Bedroom 3 has a bunk bed and bedroom 4 a lovely day bed that converts from a single to a double in seconds. They both share a third bathroom with bath and shower. In the drawing room there's a high quality sofa bed which is very comfortable. For the smaller kids we have a travel cot and high chair. There is also plenty of storage for clothes in all rooms.
There's a utility room with washing machine and separate tumble dryer and a door to the back of the house where there's an outside tap to hose down the kids when get back from the beach. There's also a shed to keep all your beach gear.
Further details outdoors: We've had a number of calls about the safety of the site for kids. The garden is terraced and the drop between the levels is small. In particular, the drop from the patio to the first level is about 3 foot max. We have thought about putting up a small fence but didn't want to detract from the fabulous view. We have a 3 year old girl and are 100% happy for her to be running around all day.
