Summary - Sunnyside, Wheal Speed, Carbis Bay TR26 2PT
4 bed 3 bath Detached
Courtyard garden and undercover room just minutes from the beach and coastal path.
Sea-facing roof terrace with evening sun and coastal views
Set on a large plot in Carbis Bay, this detached four-bedroom house balances coastal appeal with practical family living. Upstairs the light, vaulted lounge opens onto a roof terrace with sea views — a strong social and relaxation space. The ground floor includes a kitchen/diner, three bedrooms (one ensuite), a family bathroom, and a courtyard garden with an undercover garden room that extends usable living space.
Built in the mid-20th century, the house benefits from solid brick walls with external insulation, triple glazing and mains gas central heating, helping with energy efficiency. It has off-street parking for two cars, low local crime, and is chain free — useful for a quick move or holiday-let turnover. Broadband speeds are average and mobile signal is excellent, and several well-rated primary and secondary schools are within easy reach.
The property has a proven history as a successful holiday let, which creates immediate income potential but also indicates higher wear in parts. While well-maintained, buyers should note the original construction era may mean some decorative updating or modernization of fixtures and finishes is desirable. Contents are available by separate negotiation.
This home will suit families who want easy access to the beach and coastal path, or buyers seeking a coastal investment with flexible use. Cornwall’s affluent, low-crime neighbourhood and nearby amenities (bus links, stream, local woodland) add to long-term appeal, but purchasers expecting ultra-fast broadband or a brand-new shell should factor in modest upgrade work.
