Set in a quiet coastal hamlet, this flexible detached home combines generous family living with a self-contained two-bedroom annexe. The elevated first-floor living room and master suite take full advantage of far-reaching countryside and sea views, while the southwest-facing garden and gravel driveway add practical outdoor space and parking for several cars. The annexe offers independent accommodation that suits multigenerational living or rental income.
The accommodation is spacious across approximately 2,186 sq ft: six bedrooms and four bathrooms between the main house and annexe, plus an open-plan kitchen/diner and utility. Modern touches include Hive heating controls on both properties and double glazing installed after 2002. The annexe has a higher energy performance (EPC C, 78) than the main house (EPC E, 41), reflecting better efficiency and rental appeal.
Important practical points: heating is oil-fired with boiler and radiators; drainage is private. Broadband speeds are slow and mobile signal is average, reflecting the remoter coastal location. The main house’s EPC and assumed cavity walls without added insulation indicate potential energy-efficiency work is advisable. Council Tax Band F may be costly for some buyers.
This property will suit families wanting flexible accommodation near Cornwall’s coves, buyers seeking an income stream from a separate annexe, or purchasers prepared to invest in energy upgrades. The plot is large and private, offering scope to improve external areas, insulation and broadband connectivity to enhance comfort and value.
