Nestled within the heart of the picturesque fishing village of Cadgwith Cove, Square Cottage is a charming Grade 2 listed detached thatched cottage offering a rare combination of character, generous gardens, private outdoor space and views towards both the village and coastline.
Occupying an enviable position within one of Cornwall’s most sought after coastal villages, this beautifully presented home is full of traditional Cornish charm whilst providing comfortable and practical accommodation ideally suited as a permanent residence, holiday home or investment opportunity.
The ground floor centres around a welcoming lounge and dining room, where a wood burning stove creates a cosy focal point during the cooler months. The kitchen breakfast room is well appointed with ample storage and workspace, whilst a useful utility room and separate cloakroom add further practicality.
On the first floor are three bedrooms and a family bathroom. One of the double bedrooms also benefits from an adjoining shower area, providing additional convenience for family and guests.
Outside, the property truly comes into its own. Unusually for Cadgwith, Square Cottage enjoys extensive gardens which provide a wonderful variety of outdoor spaces to enjoy throughout the year. Immediately adjoining the cottage is a generous paved terrace, perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining, whilst beyond are beautifully established lawned gardens, mature planting and numerous secluded seating areas. Parts of the gardens enjoy a remarkable degree of privacy, creating peaceful spaces to relax and unwind.
A substantial detached garden room provides excellent versatility and could lend itself to a variety of uses including a home office, studio, hobbies room or additional entertaining space. The building benefits from power, lighting and a WC.
Beyond the formal gardens is a further area of land bordered by a stream, offering exciting potential for those wishing to further enhance the outdoor space.
From both the cottage and gardens there are attractive views across the village towards the coastline and sea beyond, providing a constant reminder of the property’s exceptional setting. Arguably even more captivating are the views over Cadgwith itself, taking in the charming collection of traditional cottages and the unique character for which the village is so well known.
Location
Cadgwith Cove is widely regarded as one of Cornwall’s most picturesque and unspoilt fishing villages. Nestled along the dramatic Lizard Peninsula coastline, the village is renowned for its traditional thatched cottages, working fishing fleet and timeless character that has remained largely unchanged for generations. At the heart of the village is the beautiful beach, where brightly coloured fishing boats are still hauled onto the sand and local fishermen continue to land their daily catch. The cove is also a popular destination for sea swimming, kayaking, paddleboarding and a variety of other water based activities, all set against a stunning coastal backdrop. The surrounding coastline offers some of the finest walking in Cornwall, with immediate access to the South West Coast Path and spectacular scenery in every direction. Despite its peaceful setting, Cadgwith enjoys a thriving community atmosphere with a well regarded village pub, regular local events and a welcoming year round population. The nearby villages of Ruan Minor and The Lizard provide a range of everyday amenities, whilst some of Cornwall’s most beautiful beaches, coves and coastal destinations are all within easy reach. For those seeking an authentic Cornish coastal lifestyle, few locations can rival the unique charm and enduring appeal of Cadgwith Cove.
