Glanmor Terrace, New Quay

Looking for a place with timeless character and unbroken coastal views? This double-fronted home brings together original details, wide outlooks across Newquay Beach, and a layout offering plenty of scope for shaping into a long-term home.

A place with this position along the Newquay coastline carries a certain pull, especially when it has remained largely untouched through the decades. This semi-detached, double-fronted home sits with a clear view across the beach and out towards the wider sweep of the shoreline. The front looks towards the sea in a way that gives the house a steady sense of connection to the water, while the layout inside still reflects the character of an older era. Extensions have been added over time, yet so much of the original structure and detail has been kept, allowing the whole place to feel rooted in its own history.
A glazed porch sits at the front, giving a view of the small planted area and parking space before reaching the main door. The hallway beyond has a traditional feel, shaped by straight lines, simple finishes, and a layout designed long before modern trends took over. From here, doors link through to two separate reception rooms, while an archway leads to the rear hall where the staircase rises to the upper floors and a door opens to the ground-floor w/c and shower area.

The lounge sits to one side of the hallway, marked by a bay window that faces directly towards the sea. The outlook here gives a steady reminder of the location, with the front garden in the foreground and the shoreline stretching beyond. Built-in shelving and storage units run along one wall, blending into the space without overpowering it. Exposed beams add age and texture overhead, while a marble mantelpiece holds an open fire that has clearly been a long-standing part of the room. A plate rack and picture rail complete the setting, adding small but distinctive details that reflect the home’s period roots.

Continued: - On the opposite side of the hallway, the second reception room offers a similar bay window and the same far-reaching sea view. Here, the fireplace takes on a different feel, formed by an ornate cast-iron surround with delicately painted tiles and a wooden mantel. It’s the sort of feature that instantly signals the property’s age and careful preservation. This room also includes a picture rail or plate rack, reinforcing the sense of continuity between the two rooms while still letting each hold its own identity.

Returning to the main hall, the w/c at the back includes a toilet, sink, and a wet-room-style shower. This simple, practical space adds useful flexibility to the lower floor, especially for those coming in from the beach or garden.

The rear hall leads through to the kitchen and dining area, creating a gradual shift from the more traditional parts of the home into a slightly more modern layout. The kitchen holds a range oven with a gas hob and extractor fan, along with a selection of base and wall units offering storage without dominating the room. A one-and-a-half sink and drainer sits beneath a window that looks towards the rear garden, keeping the space bright without relying on strong artificial lighting. The dining area links naturally with the kitchen and is topped by a lantern-style ceiling window, drawing daylight down from above in a calm, unobtrusive way.

From here, steps lead down to the extended reception area. This lower room has double doors with full glazing, making the most of the sea outlook even from the rear part of the house. Storage cupboards sit neatly against one wall, and the room feels well-shaped for a range of uses—whether kept as a relaxed seating area, a hobby space, or something more practical. The way it sits slightly lower also gives it a different character to the rest of the ground floor, adding another layer to the property’s overall layout.

The first floor holds three bedrooms: two doubles and one single. All three share sea views, something that immediately stands out as soon as the landing is reached. The master bedroom includes exposed floorboards and exposed beams, bringing out the raw fabric of the house. A built-in storage area sits to one side, blending into the layout without drawing too much attention. The other double bedroom mirrors some of the same charm, while the single room offers a more modest space that still carries the advantage of those coastal views.

The family bathroom sits off the landing. It includes storage cupboards, a bath with an electric shower over it, a sink, and a w/c. The room has a straightforward, functional feel, in keeping with the rest of the property.

A doorway on the landing leads to another set of stairs rising towards the attic level, while also linking through to the extension section on the first floor. The extension area contains a w/c with a sink, along with a door that leads to the side of the property—though this exit is currently unusable due to the partial removal of metal steps. Beyond this point sits a further reception room, historically used as an office. Built-in desk space and storage make practical use of the room’s shape, and once again the sea can be seen from here. Stairs within this room lead down to the reception space below, forming an internal connection between the two levels of the extension.

Climbing to the second floor, the stairs rise beneath an area of restricted headspace, something typical of older attic conversions. The top landing carries a skylight that brings in natural light and helps define this upper portion of the house. Two further rooms branch off from here. Each has exposed and painted stonework, exposed floorboards, and a dormer window offering clear sea and coastal views. These spaces could be shaped into bedrooms or alternative rooms if future owners decide to seek the necessary building regulations. They hold a mix of character and potential, with the outlook across the water forming a continual highlight.

Externally: - Externally, the front of the house includes parking for 2 cars, along with planted borders containing flowers and shrubs. Steps rise to the front door, while a gated path leads towards the porch. The sense of elevation here ties neatly into the views from the bay windows on the ground floor.

A further feature sits at the front of the property, where a door leads down a set of steps into the basement/cellar. This space has the plain, sturdy feel expected of older homes, and offers a practical area for storage or general use, sitting quietly beneath the main structure without interfering with the layout above.

To the rear, a storage area sits at the lower level before steps lead up to the garden. A pathway runs through the space towards the rear access, passing a mix of shrubs and planting that soften the setting without needing much attention. The garden includes a sheltered seating spot that works well in most weathers, along with a wooden shed for practical storage. A decked section stands to one side, though this area is currently unsafe to stand on and would need work before being used. There is also a small sauna tucked into the upper part of the garden, adding an unexpected extra feature. The property sits against the neighbouring chapel, and the chapel organ can sometimes be heard, giving the garden a distinctive atmosphere when it drifts through.

Throughout the entire house, there is a distinct feeling of a property that has kept hold of its identity. Many original features remain, offset by later alterations that offer flexibility without taking away what makes the place so rooted in its own era. The sea is almost constantly within sight, whether through the bay windows at the front, the glazed doors in the extended reception area, or the dormer windows on the top floor. This steady connection to the coastline gives the house a sense of calm continuity—less about dramatic presentation and more about the steady presence of the landscape.

As things stand, the property offers a layout that works comfortably as it is, with the added option for future shaping depending on preference. The range of rooms across multiple levels will appeal to those who appreciate older buildings with layers of history, while the sea outlook remains a major highlight. Every level, from the ground floor to the top attic rooms, finds a way to pull the coastline into daily life.
