This ground floor Victorian apartment looks out directly over the beach from a commanding position in Perranporth village centre, inviting families, walkers and adventurers of all ages to explore this stretch of the North Cornwall coast. With sea and beach views from the living room and main bedroom, high ceilings and original period features, there is a genuine sense of space and calm throughout. Two bedrooms sleep up to four – a sleigh king-sized bed in bedroom one and a zip-and-link arrangement in bedroom two – with a double sofa bed in the living room for flexible sleeping and a dining table seating six.
Inside, the open-plan living, dining and kitchen space is anchored by a Victorian open fireplace, with two chairs positioned by the window to look out across the beach and two comfy sofas for quieter evenings around the flatscreen TV. The fully equipped kitchen features a Rangemaster oven and coffee machine among its highlights. A colourful stained glass entrance door and original mosaic tiles in the porch add character, while a piano in the hallway awaits the musically inclined. Bedroom one has its own Victorian fireplace, bay window with chairs overlooking the beach and a chess set. The family bathroom includes a bath, separate shower and underfloor heating, with a second WC, basin and washer/dryer nearby. Outside, a front garden with sea views leads down to the apartment, while a private courtyard to the rear opens onto an enclosed garden. Surfboard and bike storage, a wetsuit wash area and allocated parking for two cars complete the picture.
Perranporth's wild cliffs and countryside inspired Winston Graham to write the Poldark novels – hike atop vast hills, seek out secret caves or paddle on the shoreline feeling the soft embrace of the sand. At low tide, swim in the natural open-air pool, its waters reaching Mediterranean temperatures in summer. Cafes, restaurants, surf stores and convenience shops are all on hand in the village, while a short drive takes you to Fistral Beach, Watergate Bay, or the heritage coastline and unspoiled bays of St Agnes.
