This substantial four/five bedroom detached residence is situated in the most stunning position with sea views
Situated in a magnificent elevated yet private and enchanting position on the cliffs at Mawgan Porth, enjoying spectacular views of the coastline, beach and sea is Westward - one of the oldest properties in Trenance and a once in a lifetime opportunity to secure a property located in this secluded and highly sought after location. Hear the roar of the ocean and witness the tide crashing in on the beach below, all from the privacy of the elevated tree lined plot that encompasses the property.
As the name suggests, views from Westward, the gardens and grounds stretch through the evergreen trees to the south and south west taking in an expanse of sandy beach, sea and coastline in the distance. The property is also orientated in exactly the right way to enjoy the afternoon and evening sunshine, just a couple of degrees off due south yielding phenomenal sunsets.
Westward itself was built in 1917 and was the first house on the Trenance side of Mawgan Porth. Built to generous proportions and standing at over 2500 square feet, the accommodation comprises a huge open-plan 'live-in' kitchen with open fireplace and oil fired Aga, which in turn opens into a large conservatory and the gardens. There are four genuine double bedrooms with three of these having en-suite bathrooms and the master with a dressing room. In addition, there is a family bathroom, sitting room/snug complete with an open fire which can double as a fifth bedroom, a study and utility room.
Westward is approached via a long private treelined driveway and sits to the rear of its substantial plot. Uniquely, Westward is the only house on the Trenance hillside with a truly flat plateau garden with generous level lawns and evergreen trees providing shelter and privacy. There is a double garage to the far side of the house and an expanse of paved patio to the front. Westward has great access to the coastal path where one can join the South West Coast Path or continue down to the beach within minutes. Services to the property include mains electricity, water, gas and drainage.
Westward represents a rarefied opportunity to acquire a property located in the most enchanting of positions with unique privacy, seclusion and views of the sea. For that reason, we at Jackie Stanley highly recommend an appointment to view at ones earliest opportunity.
