About this property

The Old Smoke House is an attractive and well designed two bedroomed property

Welcome to The Old Smoke House, a character-filled home with breathtaking harbour views, nestled in the heart of Charlestown, one of Cornwall's most iconic and picturesque villages. Just a short stroll from sandy beaches, traditional pubs, and top attractions, this beautifully presented property is the perfect coastal retreat for families, couples, or friends looking to enjoy a relaxing Cornish getaway.

Charlestown Harbour was constructed between 1799 and 1800 by Charles Rashleigh, whose name the village proudly bears. Once a thriving hub for the export of copper and china clay, remnants of its maritime past remain — including the original shutes on the eastern wall once used for loading cargo. Today, the harbour is a captivating place to wander, with charming cafes and pubs nearby, including The Rashleigh Arms, conveniently located just behind The Old Smoke House.

Inside, the property combines character with comfort. The well-equipped kitchen includes modern appliances, featuring an electric oven, electric ceramic hob, microwave, fridge, freezer, dishwasher and a breakfast bar seating four. The bright and airy living area features a plush sofa, an armchair, television with DVD player, and large patio doors that let in an abundance of natural light, framing the glistening harbour view - just the spot for your morning coffee!

Upstairs, exposed beams add rustic charm to the king-size master bedroom and cosy twin room, complemented by a contemporary family shower room. A washing machine and tumble dryer are also provided for added convenience.

Step through the patio doors to a delightful garden with outdoor seating and breathtaking sea views, the perfect place to soak up the Cornish sunshine with a scoop of award-winning ice cream from Tall Ships Creamery just around the corner.

Charlestown is ideally situated on Cornwall's stunning south coast, with beautiful nearby beaches such as Carlyon Bay and Caerhays. It's the perfect base for couples or families seeking a memorable coastal getaway, with world-renowned attractions like The Eden Project and The Lost Gardens of Heligan just a short drive away. You also have supermarkets such as Tesco and Asda nearby.

Additional Information:
