Dolphin House is nearing the completion of a complete renovation, returning this grand and glorious house to its former splendour.
Upon completion in May 2024, the house will boast its original Georgian proportions, high ceilings, and timeless décor, perfectly complementing its spectacular and private setting and far-reaching views.
Downstairs
A welcoming Drawing Room with a log-burning stove will provide a homely space for family gatherings. A separate Library offers a serene sanctuary to lose yourself in the pages of a captivating book or a space for older children to catch up on a much-loved series.
The most remarkable space of this beautiful home will undoubtedly be the spacious open-plan kitchen and dining room, flooded with light from dawn to dusk. Its vaulted ceilings and warm, inviting atmosphere create the perfect setting for memorable family meals or delightful dinner parties with friends.
To the rear of the house, through a glazed entrance porch and hallway, a further ensuite bedroom and separate utility and laundry room make this a perfect retreat for larger families or groups.
Upstairs
As you make your way upstairs, you will be greeted by abundant natural light pouring through the period staircase window and the generous sash windows of the three upstairs bedrooms.
The view from the windows is simply breathtaking - the mature gardens, the vast ocean, and the uninhabited islands that seem to be scattered across the horizon create a picturesque backdrop to this remarkable home.
The spacious master bedroom features a luxurious ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower, while the two additional generous and light upstairs bedrooms share a family bathroom. Here, a stunning rolltop bath invites you to indulge in a relaxing soak while enjoying the breathtaking, far-reaching views.
Outside
Dolphin House is as spectacular outside as within. Set back from the lane, within a large, private walled garden, the large granite building sits within mature landscaped gardens, a veritable kempt jungle of texture and colour.
Double patio doors will lead out from the kitchen to the sheltered courtyard, inviting you to bask in the sun's warm embrace during the day and revel in the romantic ambience created by evening by flickering candles, fairy lights, and the clear Scillonian night sky.
Myriad winding pathways and terraces beg for games of hide and seek, while the suntrap terrace encourages lazy sunlit afternoons enjoying the magnificent far-reaching views.
