St. Pirans Road, Perranporth, Cornwall, TR6

Located in the heart of Perranporth, only 100m from the beach, stands this remarkable, five-bedroom detached home. Built in the 1930's, the house offers spacious and stylish modern living whilst also retaining many beautiful original features including three working fireplaces, exposed floorboards in the hallway and the original geometric design for several stained glass windows.

Cleverly designed to allow light to flood in from all angles, the house is bright and welcoming. On the ground floor is a generous porch leading to the hallway, two spacious reception rooms which are currently used as a sitting room and dining room (both with fireplaces) and to the rear of the house is the kitchen / breakfast room with patio doors to the garden and a connecting door to the annex. Utilised as a studio apartment, this self contained space offers a variety of options for use: as a separate office space with kitchenette; for multi-generational living; or to provide an income as a rental unit.

Upstairs are three double bedrooms with large windows letting the sunlight stream in, and with views to the nearby sand dunes from one of them. The family bathroom and a separate WC are also on this floor. The property benefits from an enclosed balcony opening to the front of the house, the perfect place to enjoy a morning coffee in the sunshine and watch the world go by.

On the top floor are a further three rooms, with scope and flexibility to cater to a buyer's requirements. In addition to a double bedroom there is a third reception space, ideal as a guest's sitting room, children's playroom, or a quiet retreat, and there is also a third room on this floor which is currently used as a storage room, but could be a single bedroom or office space.

Outside in the enclosed garden there is plenty of space for surfboards and bikes and to sit and eat outside on warm days, and a driveway provides parking for a vehicle. Perranporth's vast sandy beach and great surf, and the high street's independent shops and cafes, are both a short level walk from the property. The favoured natural links golf club is two minutes' drive away and there is easy access to the new Saints Trail cycle route to Goonhavern from across the road.
