A stunning abode elevated high above the bay

This architect designed, reverse-level, luxurious chalet enjoys an enviable location on Hawkes Point - Carbis Bay (less than 2 miles from cosmopolitan harbour town St Ives).  This stunning property has been cleverly crafted, resulting in a high end holiday home that accommodates up to 4 guests.  The Chalet offers 2 en-suite bedrooms, panoramic coastal views and a state-of the-art kitchen. The exterior is a striking combination of apex windows and burnt larch timber cladding.

Stunning, secluded property with superb views and only minutes on the train into the centre of St Ives and amazing restaurants - cannot recommend enough.

Step Inside

The reverse-level layout of The Chalet ensures the top floor open-plan living/kitchen/dining space is a vantage point, benefitting from the large apex windows showcasing the fabulous coastal views that lie beneath.  No expense has been spared with the kitchen, a fully integrated Siematic kitchen fitted with truffle grey units complemented with white Corian worktops and grey floor tiles.  The living area is finished with lime washed solid oak engineered flooring and is furnished with quality furniture and variety of lighting options.  Downstairs there is a separate WC and 2 en-suite bedrooms which also boast those breathtaking coastal views.
