Atlantic View Bungalow, Mawgan Porth, TR8

Occupying an elevated position above the magnificent golden sands of Mawgan Porth, Atlantic View Bungalow is discreetly situated at the end of a private lane, enjoying an exceptional sense of peace, privacy and seclusion.

This impressive four-bedroom detached home commands far-reaching views across the bay and out towards the Atlantic Ocean, together with a wonderful outlook over Mawgan Porth and the rolling countryside inland.

In recent years, the current owners have undertaken an extensive programme of improvement, thoughtfully combining contemporary upgrades with tasteful renovation to create a stylish, comfortable and highly versatile coastal home.

The accommodation begins with a practical boot room, complete with bench seating and useful storage. From here, the property opens into a newly fitted contemporary kitchen, beautifully appointed with navy handleless cabinetry, generous larder storage and granite work surfaces. A comprehensive range of integrated appliances includes a Neff hob, oven, extractor and dishwasher, together with a fridge/freezer.

Elegant herringbone engineered oak flooring flows from the kitchen into the spacious L-shaped living and dining room. Warm, inviting and wonderfully versatile, this impressive reception space is centred around a wood-burning stove and provides ample room for several sofas, occasional furniture and a full-sized dining table and chairs. Two sets of French doors frame the sweeping views across the bay while allowing natural light to flood the room and creating a seamless connection with the gardens.

There are four bedrooms, including three generously proportioned doubles, while the fourth offers flexibility as a single bedroom, home office or peaceful study. Three of the bedrooms benefit from built-in wardrobes. A characterful cloakroom complements the smart contemporary family shower room, while a cleverly designed utility cupboard provides discreet space for the essential laundry appliances.

A particular feature of Atlantic View Bungalow is its substantial first-floor attic. Currently arranged as a generous open space, with a gable-end window and sea-facing Velux, it offers considerable potential for conversion into additional accommodation, subject to the necessary planning permission and Building Regulations approval. Planning permission was previously granted for its conversion but has since lapsed.

Outside, the beautifully private gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped and planted with a rich variety of shrubs, mature trees and established planting, creating a wonderfully calm and sheltered setting. Several distinct areas have been designed for relaxation and entertaining, including a charming summerhouse, an elevated terrace from which to enjoy the views across the bay, and an attractive sunken seating area. Off-road parking is provided on the driveway, with a further grass bank to the front and an additional patio area to the side.

The property also benefits from a detached garage with an adjoining storeroom, ideal for additional storage, hobbies or garden equipment. Planning permission was granted in 2021 to convert the garage and storeroom into self-contained one-bedroom ancillary accommodation. Although this consent has since lapsed, there may be potential to reinstate it through a fresh planning application. Services to the property include mains gas, water, electricity and drainage.
