AN EXECUTIVE DETACHED FAMILY HOME OCCUPYING A GENEROUS PLOT IN THE HIGHLY SOUGHT-AFTER PENTIRE AREA OF NEWQUAY, WITH ESTABLISHED GARDENS AND EXCEPTIONAL ESTUARY VIEWS

Description

This substantial detached family home occupies an impressive plot and enjoys breathtaking, uninterrupted views across Penpol Creek, the River Gannel tidal estuary, and the protected National Trust land beyond. Positioned above one of North Cornwall’s most wildlife-rich and scenic landscapes, the property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a home in an outstanding coastal setting.

.

The well-balanced accommodation is arranged over two floors. To the ground floor is a welcoming entrance hall, cloakroom, kitchen, utility room, formal dining room, and a spacious dual-aspect lounge, flooded with natural light and opening into a conservatory that takes full advantage of the outlook. A detached double garage completes the ground floor offering. To the first floor are three generous double bedrooms and a further single bedroom, alongside a family bathroom. The principal bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room, with elevated views across the estuary.

Garden and Grounds

Set within a generous and well-established plot, the property benefits from ample off-road parking, a detached double garage, and mature landscaped gardens. The rear gardens are laid to lawn and complemented by an array of established Cornish palms, flowering shrubs, and planting creating a private and tranquil outdoor environment.

Location

The property is superbly positioned approximately 150 metres from the banks of the River Gannel tidal estuary, which flows from the golden sands of Crantock Beach and out to the Atlantic Ocean beyond. Fistral Beach, located within approximately 500 metres, is one of the UK’s most iconic surf beaches, renowned for its expansive sandy shoreline and dramatic coastal scenery.

.

Pentire is one of Newquay’s most desirable residential areas, set between the world-renowned Fistral Beach and the tranquil River Gannel Estuary. The headland offers spectacular coastal walks and is home to the renowned Lewinnick Lodge, a boutique hotel and restaurant enjoying panoramic ocean views. The estuary also provides access to the charming village of Crantock, either by foot at low tide or via the historic ferry service from Fern Pit Café, established in 1910. Newquay town centre is easily accessible, and Newquay International Airport lies approximately seven miles away, offering excellent regional and national connectivity.

Agents Note

Due to the size and positioning of the plot, the property offers potential for further extension or redevelopment, the current owners have approved planning for substantial works that would transform the house into a truly exceptional modern family home to perfectly appreciate the views.
