La Vedetta, Mawgan Porth

Perched above Mawgan Porth’s ever-changing tides, The Lookout is a contemporary yet characterful and most certainly a luxurious coastal home with a stunning ocean backdrop. The Lookout combines elegant interiors with quirky finishing touches, occupying a commanding presence over the beach below and across the Atlantic ocean beyond, not to mention an impressive panoramic aspect of the whole of Mawgan Porth.
This substantial four double bedroom/three storey building exudes style and elegance throughout, successfully combining characterful originality and uniquely conceived architectural design.
The Lookout’s open plan living area is the pinnacle of the property, home to a two sided inset wood burner, exposed stonework and an expanse of bi-folding doors leading to the large sea view terrace. Meanwhile, a dedicated cosy snug provides a breakout room with its own wood burning stove.
The kitchen/dining room is a bright contemporary space with modern cabinetry, stone work surfaces and integrated appliances. Furthermore, there is a separate utility room and handy cloakroom.
With stunning vistas across Mawgan Porth headland and the surrounding countryside, the first bedroom on the first floor opens onto a private wraparound deck. This beautiful resting place also includes a stylish en-suite shower room and built-in wardrobe. The playful bunk room is adjacent with built-in bunks and wardrobe. Bedroom three features lofty ceilings and unique Aztec detailing, creating a feeling of character and space. On either side of the bed are an en-suite shower room and walk-in wardrobe. The first floor is complete with the family bathroom which overlooks gently rolling fields as far as the eye can see. A freestanding rolltop bath commands the space, while bold pendent lighting and geometric tiles underfoot bring style and personality in abundance.
Nestled beneath sloping eaves, the master bedroom takes the penthouse position on the second floor. This luxurious space again provides a walk-in wardrobe and en-suite shower room with funky tiling.
With a sea-view terrace to the front and an elevated lawn to the side of the house, there’s plenty of outdoor space to enjoy. Peel back the bi-folding doors, take a seat at the dining table on the terrace or indulge in the cedar clad hot tub. Wash away a day at the beach using the handy outdoor shower in the courtyard at the front of the house. The undercover parking bays provide enough space to park two vehicles while a log store has space enough for an abundance of logs to feed the wood burners.
