Property Description - Millerson Estate Agents are thrilled to present this exquisite coastal estate with panoramic sea views and development potential, a stunning four/five-bedroom detached home set in expansive grounds including a private acre paddock.

Perched in a commanding elevated position overlooking one of Cornwall’s most breath-taking bays, this magnificent, detached period residence offers an exceptional coastal lifestyle paired with a rare and valuable asset, an additional acre paddock set behind the property, offering exciting potential for future development, such as the addition of a holiday lodge or chalet (subject to planning).

This unique combination of spectacular sea views, generous living space, and expansive grounds creates an unparalleled opportunity for families or investors looking to secure a prestigious coastal home with flexibility and scope to enhance the property further.

Inside, the home spans over 2,000 square feet across three levels, blending traditional character with spacious, light-filled interiors that maximise the stunning surroundings. The bay-fronted living room is a bright and inviting space, perfect for relaxing while taking in the uninterrupted panoramic views of the ocean and coastline.

Adjacent is a formal dining room that enjoys equally impressive vistas, ideal for entertaining or intimate family meals. The well-equipped kitchen, complemented by an adjoining shower room offers practical, versatile space with direct access to the rear garden.

Upstairs, there are four double bedrooms, all of which benefit from en-suite bathrooms, providing privacy and convenience. In addition, there are two separate family bathrooms to serve the household. The principal bedroom enjoys breath-taking sea views.

The impressive loft room on the top floor offers flexible use as a fifth bedroom, office, or creative studio, benefitting from sweeping views across the sea and surrounding countryside, a true sanctuary within the home.
To the side of the property stands a charming two-storey stone-built structure, presenting excellent potential for conversion into a holiday let, artist’s studio, or guest accommodation, ideal for enhancing rental income or creating additional living space (subject to planning consent). Additionally, there is an external boiler room housing the oil-fired boiler, discreetly located for convenience.

The outdoor space is equally captivating. Beautifully landscaped wraparound gardens and a generous raised terrace provide an idyllic setting for alfresco dining, entertaining, or simply enjoying the peaceful coastal surroundings. A notable feature of the garden is a charming shack with great potential to be converted into an outside bar or kitchen, perfect for summer gatherings and enhancing the outdoor lifestyle.

Beyond the garden lies the private acre paddock, offering valuable additional space with significant potential for the addition of a holiday lodge, chalet, or other outbuilding, subject to necessary consents - further enhancing the property’s versatility and future value.

Off-street parking for multiple vehicles is provided at the front, framed by traditional stone walls and mature planting, while the charming red post-box adds character and a distinctive touch to the property’s entrance.

The property benefits from mains water, electricity, and drainage, and is heated via oil-fired radiators. It falls within Council Tax Band C. Viewings are highly recommended to fully appreciate everything this home has to offer.
