Sunset

Step inside Sunset and the sense of space is immediate. This sizeable coastal home is flooded with natural light through the striking front-facing glass wall, filling the first floor with a warm, welcoming atmosphere and framing those all-important views towards the sea and surrounding landscape.

Set over two floors, the house has been thoughtfully designed with a reverse-living layout, ensuring the main social spaces make the most of the elevated position and jackpot coastal outlook. The main entrance opens onto the first floor, where the open-plan living, dining and kitchen area creates an impressive setting for relaxed holidays by the sea.

Decked out in calming neutral shades, the living and dining areas offer a versatile and sociable space for groups to gather in comfort. Whether you’re sitting down to a celebratory supper, enjoying a lazy late breakfast or sharing a relaxed high tea after the beach, the clever layout subtly separates each area while maintaining a wonderful sense of openness and flow.

The sleek corner kitchen brings an ultra-contemporary edge to the space, with high-tech culinary features that budding chefs will love. Perfect for feeding a hungry house of 10 after days spent surfing, walking the coast or exploring Cornwall, it is both stylish and highly practical.

Just off the main living area, a separate snug provides a quieter retreat where children can escape the grown-up chatter and enjoy a movie, favourite board game or a little downtime of their own.

Downstairs, accessed by a beautiful central wooden staircase, 5 unique bedrooms and contemporary bathrooms are thoughtfully arranged across the lower floor. Each bedroom offers a comfortable haven for rest and relaxation, with 3 enjoying direct garden access and a sunny aspect, perfect for slow mornings and easy indoor-outdoor living.

The bathrooms have been superbly finished with deep baths and indulgent showers, adding a touch of luxury to the everyday rhythm of holiday life. After sandy beach days or windswept coastal walks, they offer the perfect place to refresh, soak and unwind.

Throughout the house, the owners have skilfully blended bespoke style and flair with modern comfort and practicality. Spacious, light-filled and beautifully considered, Sunset offers a luxurious yet relaxed holiday home for families and friends looking to enjoy Porthtowan and the North Cornwall coast in style.

Step outside and let holiday life flow onto the generous wooden veranda, where far-reaching views stretch across lush green fields towards the blue seas of Porthtowan beyond. This inviting outdoor space is perfect for slow mornings, sunny afternoons and relaxed evenings, with plenty of room for children to play while the grown-ups unwind with coffee, a good book or a favourite drink in hand.

At either side of the elevated veranda, steps lead down to a further patio at ground level, complete with outdoor dining furniture and a level lawned garden. Lazy summer days can be spent enjoying the peaceful surroundings, gathering for al fresco meals or simply soaking up the fresh coastal air. As evening falls, the veranda becomes a wonderful sunset viewpoint after days spent surfing, walking or exploring Cornwall.

Just moments from your holiday door, Porthtowan offers a brilliant mix of beach life, surf culture and relaxed coastal charm. The popular Blue Bar is well worth a visit for breakfast, lunch or a relaxed family supper, while the Blue Flag beach is lifeguarded from Easter to October, making it a superb choice for swimming, surfing, bodyboarding and beach days.

Close by, St Agnes is a must-visit for independent shops, welcoming pubs, cafés and a strong sense of Cornish character, while Chapel Porth and the dramatic engine house at Wheal Coates showcase some of the most iconic coastal scenery in Cornwall. Perranporth offers a vast sweep of golden sand, surf schools and beachside dining, and Newquay brings a lively choice of beaches, restaurants, family attractions and watersports.

Further afield, explore the harbour town of Padstow, the Camel Trail and the Seven Bays, or head west towards Hayle, Carbis Bay and St Ives for wide sandy beaches, galleries, harbour life and beautiful coastal walks. From Sunset, days out can be as adventurous or as easy-going as you choose, with coast paths, coves, surf spots, heritage landmarks and foodie favourites all within reach.

Whether you’re planning beach days, coastal adventures, lazy garden afternoons or memorable meals together, Sunset offers the perfect base for friends, families and smaller groups looking for a spacious and tranquil holiday home on the Cornish coast.
