Description

Positioned in an elevated setting above the picturesque harbour of Mevagissey, Wild Air is a remarkable 1930s detached home that captures the essence of timeless coastal living. With far-reaching sea views that stretch across the harbour to the horizon, this characterful and spacious property offers beautifully arranged accommodation over three floors as well as a self-contained annexe, ideal for guests, holiday letting or extended family.

Thoughtfully updated while retaining its period charm, the house is rich with original features including stained glass, pine doors, picture rails and a graceful turning staircase. Deep bay windows invite natural light and frame the breathtaking views, most notably from the main sitting room and sunroom, where the sea feels almost within reach. The well-appointed kitchen connects seamlessly with a dedicated dining room, creating a sociable heart to the home while a large utility space and ground floor cloakroom enhance the practicality for everyday life.

Upstairs, the first floor provides two comfortable bedrooms and a family bathroom along with access to a private terrace overlooking the coast, the perfect spot for morning coffee or evening sunsets. The upper floor features a generous master room complete with en suite facilities and a striking feature porthole window that looks out across the coastline — arguably the most spectacular vantage point in the house and offering total privacy.

Set within the property but feeling completley seperate from the main residence, the stylish annexe spans two floors and enjoys its own private entrance. The ground floor features an open plan kitchen and living space while upstairs offers a beautifully finished double bedroom with en suite and glorious sea views. Currently operating as a successful holiday let, the annexe provides not only flexibility and independence but also a valuable source of income.

Oustide the propety

Outside, Wild Air offers a range of inviting garden areas. The front garden has been designed to fully embrace the scenery with a raised sun terrace above the garage providing a tranquil space for alfresco dining or simply soaking in the atmosphere of the harbour below. To the rear, a private garden offers lawned areas, mature planting, a wildlife pond and useful outbuildings including a greenhouse and garden shed with power. Practicality is well considered with a detached garage and rare off-road parking for multiple vehicles, a valuable asset in this sought-after coastal village.

Location

Wild Air sits within easy walking distance of Mevagissey’s harbour, local shops, pubs and restaurants yet remains tucked away in a peaceful position above the village. Mevagissey itself is one of Cornwall’s most beloved fishing villages offering a vibrant community, scenic coastal walks and a rich maritime history. Local highlights include the Lost Gardens of Heligan and the Eden Project while Truro and St Austell provide further amenities and transport connections a short drive away. With its enviable position, characterful interiors and flexible living options, Wild Air presents a rare opportunity to own a truly special home in one of Cornwall’s most iconic locations.

About Pilkington Estates, Stoke

Harscombe House 1Darklake View, Plymouth, PL6 7TL

Buying and selling property is both an art and a science. In the 21st century, the world of estate agency has blossomed in the digital environment, leaving many traditional firms left standing, eyeing the technology with confusion and suspicion rather than embracing it. The team at Pilkington Estates are digital natives, embracing everything the modern world has to offer to help present your home in the best possible light, and using technology to get the right message to the right buyer at the right time.

This contemporary, no nonsense approach is balanced by a sensitivity and empathy towards their customers, both buyers and sellers, that allows us to offer a truly one to one bespoke service.

We understand that every customer is different, and each client has different needs and requirements, so will customise any modern method of selling to suit individual requirements.

Whether you are an old hand with multiple sales under your belt, or whether you are selling a much loved family home for the first time, Pilkington Estates are careful to hand hold you through the process as much or as little as you need.

We can help keep your house hunting enthusiasm burning with intelligent recommendations or can take the strain of the entire relocation process by doing all the running around that you are too busy to do.

We sit comfortably in this fast-paced world, understanding your need for urgency. We bring an energy and confidence to the whole buying and selling process that will get the job done without the drama.

This is not an agency that likes to sit around waiting for the phone to ring!
