Vine Cottage

Situated in the middle of the Higher Strand offering expansive harbour and island views ‘Vine Cottage’ is a property that truly needs viewing. It has been totally refurbished and renovated to a seriously high standard whilst tastefully retaining the elements of its amazing Scillonian history. There has been a full history of the property produced for the renovation which makes fascinating reading. ‘Vine’ comprises of three bedrooms, one en suite, and two serviced by a fully tiled shower room comprising of a large walk in shower, w/c and hand basin. There is also a large bath/ shower on the ground floor. The ground floor comprises of a front Double Lounge and the original fire place and granite walls have been exposed and pointed to retain that cottage feel while the floor level has been dropped to give height and a depth to the rooms. 

The expansive Kitchen, Lounge, Diner is a stunning open area that invites social dining and relaxation. Large bi fold doors open onto the enclosed rear ‘sun trap’, South facing garden which has bee sensitively laid out to show off the Mediterranean/Scillonian planting. 

The garden also contains a ‘shed’, but what a shed! With its own sink unit, hot and cold water, heating etc it can be a storage unit. office or even an outdoor kitchen for those Al Fresco dining days. Opposite the ‘shed’ is an outdoor, slate laid, raised dining area with table and chairs that really catches the late afternoon Summer sun.

I could spend many pages exalting the virtues of ‘Vine Cottage’ but you need to view this property, to take in the ambience, to embrace the style and to enjoy a property that really is ‘one of its kind’ on Scilly.
