Barbican Hill, Looe, Cornwall, PL13.

Wespenton occupies a peaceful and private elevated position in East Looe, set just off the quiet Barbican Hill and within a short stroll of the charming town centre.

This fine Victorian residence has been recently re-developed and reimagined with a thoughtful, contemporary design ? seamlessly blending period character with modern luxury. Arranged across four light-filled levels, the main house is perfectly oriented to capture spectacular, uninterrupted 180-degree panoramic, southernly and westerly views, stretching across the town and estuary and out to the glistening sea beyond.

Every principal room makes the most of this breathtaking outlook, with broad windows and French doors inviting in natural light and framing the ever-changing coastal scenery. From sunrise over the estuary to sunset over the sea, the views provide a constant, living backdrop to daily life.

Inside, double doors from the entrance hall lead into a spacious living room with tiled flooring and French doors that open directly onto the terraced garden ? another perfect spot to relax and take in the panoramic coastal views. Off the hall, the sleek, fully fitted AEG kitchen and dining area features shaker-style cabinetry, a central island and breakfast bar, Quartz worktops, and integrated appliances including a Franke sink and Quooker tap.

Steps from the kitchen lead to the utility room, cloakroom, and wine store with exposed stone walls. A staircase descends from the sitting room to the cinema room, creating an inviting space for entertaining.

The first-floor main bathroom offers a jacuzzi bath, and both the principal and guest suites boast luxurious bathrooms complete with a bath and shower. The principal suite features a Juliette balcony ? the perfect spot to stand and admire the mesmerising estuary views ? along with a walk-in wardrobe and dressing area. The second floor offers two further double bedrooms and a shower room, all finished to the same high standard, with underfloor heating throughout the bathrooms.

The detached annexe apartment, positioned above the garage and gym, enjoys the same commanding perspective and offers a fully self-contained retreat. Inside, an open-plan living space with its own kitchen, dining, and lounge areas opens through bi-fold doors to a south-facing roof terrace ? an exceptional vantage point for soaking in the panoramic views across the rooftops of Looe, the meandering estuary, and the open waters beyond. Complete with a double bedroom and en-suite shower room, the annexe provides the perfect spot for morning coffee or evening drinks while watching the tides and shifting light across the bay.

Outside, high double electric gates open to a driveway with an electric car turntable, ample parking, and a heated double garage. The terraced south-facing garden is beautifully landscaped with numerous ornamental trees, shrubs, colourful plantings and foliage, creating an idyllic outdoor dining and sitting area that overlooks the stunning, far-reaching views of the town, estuary, and sea.

Wespenton offers not just a home, but a truly elevated coastal lifestyle ? where every window, terrace, and garden view connects you to the beauty of Looe and its ever-changing seascape.
