Description
Occupying an elevated frontline position above Porthleven Beach, Seathrift is a contemporary coastal residence enjoying uninterrupted panoramic views across Mount's Bay, taking in The Lizard Peninsula to the east and the coastline of West Penwith to the west. Recently renovated throughout, the property combines generous accommodation with a thoughtful reverse-level design, ensuring the principal living spaces make the most of its exceptional outlook.
The first floor is centred around an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and living room, where vaulted ceilings and extensive glazing create a light-filled space with uninterrupted sea views. Doors open onto a southwest-facing balcony, providing a natural extension of the living accommodation and a sheltered position from which to enjoy the coastal setting. Also on this level is a separate snug, offering a quieter retreat that complements the principal living space and provides welcome flexibility for family life or more relaxed entertaining.
The ground floor provides five well-proportioned bedrooms, including a generous principal suite with en suite shower room and a further en suite double bedroom. Three additional bedrooms are served by a beautifully appointed family bathroom, creating a layout that is equally well suited to family living or visiting guests. A practical utility and boot room complete the accommodation on this level, enhancing the home's everyday functionality while also lending itself to use as an exceptional coastal retreat with strong holiday letting potential.
Outside, the landscaped gardens have been arranged across a series of terraces, creating a number of distinct seating and entertaining areas. A heated swimming pool with surrounding sun terrace forms the focal point of the garden, complemented by a pizza oven and well-established coastal planting. The combination of private outdoor spaces and the elevated position allows the gardens to fully embrace the far-reaching views.

Offering contemporary accommodation, excellent energy efficiency and an exceptional coastal setting, Seathrift represents a rare opportunity to acquire a frontline home in one of Cornwall's most sought-after locations.
