The Crescent, Looe, Cornwall PL13

Set in an enviable elevated position along the prestigious Crescent in Hannafore, Moondarra presents a rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a coastal property with breathtaking sea views and enormous potential. With full planning permission granted to demolish and redevelop, this site is a dream canvas for those looking to create a bespoke contemporary home in one of Cornwall’s most exclusive seaside settings.

Alternatively, the existing property, offering over 1,435 sq. Ft. Across two storeys, can be renovated and modernised, making the most of its charming layout, sunny orientation, and panoramic outlook over Looe Bay and Looe Island.

Accommodation Overview:
The ground floor of Moondarra features a spacious living room that opens directly ontothe front garden, perfect for alfresco dining, entertaining, or simply enjoying the coastal views.
