1 Bedroom House

Set high above the dramatic coastline of Whitsand Bay, this exceptional oceanfront property offers a rare opportunity to acquire a fully refurbished, income-ready coastal retreat in one of Cornwall’s most sought-after holiday let locations. Combining high-end design, breathtaking views, and proven demand, this is a lifestyle asset with genuine investment credentials.

The Home

Meticulously renovated throughout, the property has been reimagined to deliver a seamless blend of craftsmanship, design, and functionality. Every element has been carefully considered, resulting in a refined, high-specification interior that stands out in the premium holiday let market.

The accommodation is arranged across a single level, designed to maximise light, flow, and connection to the coastal setting. At its heart lies a striking open-plan kitchen, dining, and living space, an inviting and highly versatile environment suited to both personal use and guest enjoyment.

The bespoke solid oak kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of integrated appliances, including Neff, Bosch, and Siemens, complemented by leathered granite worktops and a Quooker boiling water tap. Reclaimed ship lighting and handcrafted joinery introduce warmth and individuality, elevating the overall finish.

The living area centres around a British-made Arada wood-burning stove, enhancing year-round appeal, while sliding doors open directly onto the terrace, framing the sea beyond and creating a natural extension of the living space.

The bedroom is calm and well-proportioned, featuring integrated storage and a king-size bed, while the shower room offers a boutique, hotel-style finish with slate surfaces, bespoke fittings, and a walk-in wet room, designed to meet the expectations of high-end holiday guests.

The majority of the furniture can be purchased, subject to further negotiation. Meaning the property is ready for immediate occupation or letting, allowing for a seamless transition into ownership.

Outside Space

Externally, the property has been finished with durability and longevity in mind, featuring slate and specialist Bremstone ash timber cladding designed to withstand the coastal environment with minimal maintenance.

The elevated, sea-facing terrace is a standout feature, providing uninterrupted panoramic views across the English Channel, including the iconic Eddystone Lighthouse and Rame Head. This outdoor space is perfectly suited for dining, entertaining, or simply enjoying the ever-changing coastal backdrop.

The landscaped gardens, planted with olive trees and coastal shrubs, enhance privacy and create a tranquil setting that further elevates the property’s appeal to both owners and guests.

Off-road parking for two vehicles is located to the rear, an increasingly rare and valuable feature within this stretch of coastline.

Lifestyle & Investment

Whitsand Bay is widely regarded as one of Cornwall’s hidden gems, known for its natural beauty, unspoilt coastline, and strong demand for premium holiday accommodation. Properties in this position, with uninterrupted views and high-quality finishes, consistently perform well within the short-term rental market.

This property has been designed with that market in mind, offering a turnkey solution for buyers seeking both a personal coastal retreat and a lifestyle investment. The combination of striking design, unique character features, and a front-line sea position creates a compelling proposition for guests and drives repeat occupancy.

Whether used as a private escape or a fully managed holiday let, the property delivers flexibility, income potential, and long-term appeal.

Location

Positioned along the cliff at Freathy, the property enjoys a unique balance of seclusion and accessibility. The nearby coastal villages of Kingsand and Cawsand offer a collection of waterfront cafés, traditional pubs, and a vibrant sailing community, while the wider Rame Peninsula provides exceptional coastal walks and unspoilt countryside.

Despite its peaceful setting, the property is conveniently connected to the city of Plymouth via the Torpoint Ferry, offering access to a wide range of restaurants, shopping, cultural amenities, and mainline rail links to London.

This combination of privacy, scenery, and accessibility underpins the property’s strong appeal to both second-home owners and holidaymakers alike.
