With its beautiful interior, private garden and unobstructed ocean views this modern family home is perfect for getaways on Cornwall's stunning south coast.
Apart from having a beautiful external design the house also features a gorgeous interior where a colour palette of calming hues as well as a selection of sumptuous soft furnishings creates an atmosphere that’s thoroughly condusive to relaxing. Glass sliding doors capitalise on the magnificent views of sea and sky, while high quality features throughout mean the home strikes just the right balance between aesthetics and practicality. Downstairs, the living and cooking area boasts an open-plan layout which feels spacious and light-filled thanks to that fantastic proportion of glass, and opens out to a deck where morning coffees and evening drinks can be enjoyed. Two roomy sofas create the perfect places to unwind on to take in the scenes of rolling waves and skyscapes in the distance, and the area is completed with a dining table, a large wood-burning stove and a stunning modern kitchen with breakfast bar and seating. Three wonderful bedrooms mean plenty of space for six guests, with the exquisite upper floor master suite having its own juliet balcony and en-suite bathroom. All rooms have deeply comfortable mattresses and beautiful décor, creating sumptuous sanctuaries for retreating to after days spent down on the beach.
Ideally placed above Praa Sands’ mile long stretch of fine sand, the delights of Cornish beach life lie quite literally on the property’s doorstep. Backed by dunes and spectacular coastal scenery it’s the ideal place for family picnics, sandcastle building or for paddling in the shallows, while the bay’s renowned swells draw bodyboarders and surfers from all over the country. Within 10 minutes’ drive are the popular coastal towns of Porthleven in one direction, and Marazion in the other where a plethora of coastal paths and walks can be relished along with visits to some of the area’s best-known landmarks like St Michael’s Mount and Porthleven’s harbour.
