As featured in the magazine "25 Beautiful Homes!"

5 Albany Terrace is a deluxe self catering property situated in St. Ives, on the south-western tip of Cornwall which is flanked by miles of magnificent coastal scenery. The property has recently been totally refurbished in a contemporary style but retains many of its original features and combining them with luxurious facilities to offer a truly outstanding experience. The property is also featured in the magazine "25 Beautiful Homes!"

The property is just a stone's throw away and overlooking the beautiful Porthminster beach at St. Ives, therefore making it a perfect location as a beach-side pad, with the huge benefit of on-site parking for 2/3 cars.

Historically, this property is one of 8 properties in the terrace that were built by a Edward Hain, the shipping tycoon for each of his sea captains in 1850, and originally the front gardens led straight down to the beach!

The property is very spacious with light-flooded rooms laid out on 3 floors. It is decorated with exceptionally high quality taste throughout, retaining all the original features but equipped with all the latest gadgets and mod cons.

Central St. Ives is just a 10 minute walk away and therefore is easily accessible to the fantastically varied restaurants to accommodate all tastes, shops, artist studios and of course the Tate Gallery.

Lands End and the open-air theatre at Porthcurno are only a short distance away and either a fishing trip from the harbour in St. Ives or a surf lesson is a must. There are also numerous coastal walks which takes in the breathtaking scenery.
