Perranporth is a popular destination for both visitors and Cornish locals alike as it has one of Cornwall’s longest sandy beaches which meets the Atlantic swells, providing swimming, surfing and kite surfing conditions depending on the weather and states of tide. These two attached properties for sale, six-bedroomed Atlantic House and two-bedroomed Surfers Cottage are both situated yards from the beach.
Atlantic House, with an asking price of £1,195,000 is a grand double bay fronted, three-storey, six-bedroom Victorian seaside villa commanding panoramic views over Perranporth beach, the sea, coastline and sand dunes. The house has an appealing appearance, being at the end of a terrace of similarly proportioned stone-faced properties with protruding bays over two storeys and symmetrical dormer windows for the large second floor rooms.
Parking is catered for directly off Cliff Road, with extensive decking and paved terraces around the house providing outside space facing the sea or enjoying shelter and sunshine. The beach views are available from all of the six bedrooms, the kitchen/dining room and lounge, whilst the sitting room shares a view through the lounge as well.
The modernised accommodation retains period features such as the tessellated entrance hall, high moulded skirtings, 9’3” high ceilings found on the ground and first floors, moulded door architraves and even a moulded archway in the reception hall and a ceiling rose in the lounge where there is also a wood-burning stove set into a fireplace. Much of the property has underfloor heating with other parts having contemporary electric radiators.

Over the upper two floors, the principal bedroom has its own large en-suite shower room and walk-in wardrobe, as does the bedroom above it whilst the other four bedrooms share a large bath/shower room on the first floor and a further shower room on the second floor. The building has low-maintenance double-glazed windows and doors and the lower ground floor offers a basement with a side access door.
Here, and where the current decking is to the front, planning permission was gained in 2020 (REF: PA20/10531) for complete alteration and the addition of a further large sea-facing room plus a room for returning to having been on the beach. Part of the work in this planning permission has been completed already.
In addition, the vendors are also selling an attached two-bedroomed cottage to the rear of Atlantic House which has its own parking area approached off Tywarnhayle Road and its own outside space meaning the two are completely private from one another. Surfers Cottage has an asking price of £450,000 and offers a perfect mix of spacious freehold accommodation with parking and suntrap outdoor decks. Within yards of its parking area a broad footpath descends down to Cliff Road leading straight to the head of the beach and also into the town.
Inside, the three-storey accommodation has a large kitchen/dining room on the ground floor with a sitting room on the first floor opening to the southwest facing deck. A bathroom is also found at this level, with the two bedrooms on the uppermost floor, the principal bedroom being of a very good size and has its own door out to a short flight of steps down to the decking and parking area. For those wanting a low-maintenance house or holiday rental right by the beach which also enjoys a peaceful and sunny location with private parking, Surfers Cottage is more than ideal.
Perranporth provides adequately for day-to-day needs with many local shops, inns, restaurants, a primary school and a new secondary school due to be completed in 2026. Further facilities are available in the capital city of Truro which is around 15 minutes’ drive away with a wide array of national and independent shops and facilities.
