A unique coastal retreat above cadgwith cove

Occupying an enviable cliff top position above the traditional fishing cove of Cadgwith, this truly special property enjoys an outstanding elevated position with panoramic views across the sea and over the picturesque cove below.

Approached via a private driveway and set within its own gardens, the property offers a wonderful sense of privacy and seclusion, whilst being just a relatively short walk from the heart of Cadgwith and the South West Coast Path. From almost every aspect, there are wonderful views towards the sea, with fishing boats, sailing vessels and the rugged Cornish coastline providing an ever-changing backdrop.

The property has been refurbished by the present owners and is perfectly positioned to make the most of its exceptional coastal setting. The gardens provide a number of areas in which to relax and enjoy the surroundings, including an open-sided decking area, ideally positioned to take in the spectacular views and enjoy the sunshine throughout the day. There is also a separate patio area and ample parking immediately outside the property.

The location is quite simply outstanding. From the property, the coast path leads down towards Cadgwith Cove in just a few minutes, whilst paths in the opposite direction lead towards Kennack Sands, Coverack and beyond. Whether enjoying the ever-changing seascape from the garden, watching the fishing boats coming and going from the cove or heading out along the coast path, this is a property that offers an exceptional Cornish coastal lifestyle.

A rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully positioned coastal property in one of the most sought-after locations on the Lizard Peninsula, combining privacy, outstanding views, generous outside space and immediate access to the coast.
