Beach Road, Mevagissey, Cornwall

Hunkin Homes is delighted to offer to the market this light and spacious 4-bedroom period home with spectacular sea and coastal views. With front and rear gardens, and charming period features throughout, the house is one of only twelve on the sought-after Beach Road.

Previously significantly extended, it is one of the largest houses on the road and has recently been subject to a comprehensive programme of refurbishment. Situated just yards from the beautiful Polstreath Beach, the coastal footpath, and the delightful cliffside Pentillie playing field, this impressive double-fronted 1920s property enjoys a sunny southerly aspect. The attractive historic harbourside centre of Mevagissey, with its many shops, restaurants and pubs, is also within half a mile. Often a rarity in the village, the house has the bonus of driveway parking and allows future scope to install an EV charger. Beach Road is conveniently set above the village centre giving easy access by road to the surrounding area, and Truro is approximately 25 minutes by car. There is a regular bus service around the corner, and the primary school is within half a mile.

Upon entering the property, you are greeted by an entrance porch with a stained glass door leading to the living space. The large and impressive sitting room offers an open fireplace and bay window to the front, which affords stunning sea views encompassing the Chapel Point headland and Mevagissey Bay. The adjacent charming dining room also has an open fireplace, a bay window to the front, and a serving hatch. It has the scope to be used as an additional bedroom or reception room. The generous kitchen is located at the rear of the property and offers a range of fitted units and space for a table and appliances. Sliding doors open onto the rear garden and a useful re-roofed rear porch. An additional larder/under-stairs storage cupboard, separate WC with hand basin, coat hanging area, and the oil-fired central heating boiler are also located off the kitchen.

Upstairs, the property has four bedrooms, a family bathroom and an airing cupboard, which all lead from a sizeable landing. Bedroom one is located to the front and is a generous double bedroom with a bay window offering fantastic elevated views over the bay, which can be enjoyed whilst lying in bed. Bedroom two offers similarly stunning views and is a further spacious double bedroom with a fitted cupboard. Bedroom three is another double bedroom, which is located at the rear of the property. It has a large window to the side with views towards the countryside. Bedroom four is a useful single bedroom with space for bunk beds or as an ideal home office with elevated views of the bay. It also has scope to create a balcony above the existing porch by installing a door in place of the window (subject to consents). The recently replaced family bathroom offers a roll top, claw foot bath with shower over, WC and sink vanity unit.

Outside, the property provides a driveway to the front for one car, an area of raised mature planting, and a private seating area with impressive sea views. At the rear, the property has a largely low-maintenance garden perfect for alfresco dining and ideal if the property were used as a second home. The ‘L’ shaped garden also has a private seating area and space for a hot tub. Paved steps lead up to a wide Cornish stone hedge to the rear boundary with the potential to utilise as a small vegetable area. It looks onto an attractive wooded area of a neighbouring garden and has seasonal sea views along the coast to Pentewen.

Subject to planning, the house also offers the additional benefit of the potential to be subdivided laterally into two separate apartments or, as has been done at the neighbouring property, conversion into two separate homes.

Ideal for families, those wishing to downsize, or as a holiday let, all of this is located just yards from the Cornish coastal path, the beach and within half a mile of the nearby village amenities.
