SUMMARY OF ACCOMMODATION Ground Floor: recessed porch, through passage, large reception hall, 31’ living/dining room with enormous picture window, modern fitted kitchen. Lower Floor: 4th bedroom en-suite. First Floor: landing, 3 bedrooms, bathroom. Outside: full width cliff top rear sun terrace which is paved and enclosed by low stone and white painted walls. DESCRIPTION Ocean Calling is a ‘frontline’ cliff top terraced period house dating probably from the early 1800’s and believed to have been remodelled in the 1950’s with extensive modernisation more recently carried out by our clients. The front elevation is finished in colour washed stucco with maintenance free sealed unit double glazed windows and includes a recessed porch with granite steps and a solid oak front door. The accommodation is contemporary in style and exceedingly well presented having an extremely light, bright and welcoming atmosphere with rooms of splendid size. Gas fired central heating is installed to the ground floor with electronic wall heaters to the first floor. The large lounge opens into the dining room creating an outstanding through room, overall some 30’ long extending into a fully glazed bay window incorporating one enormous full width picture window offering a vista which can truly be described as ‘picture postcard’. The kitchen is modern and attractively fitted with gloss white units with beech worksurfaces and integrated appliances. On the first floor there are three good sized bedrooms one of which commands exceptional panoramic harbour, beach, sea and coastal views. The bathroom includes white sanitaryware and again takes advantage of the truly fantastic vista.

Ref: LCAA6245 3 There is a fourth bedroom on the lower floor, accessed currently off the sea facing rear terrace offering potentially for integration into the main accommodation as it is clear that these rooms were once part of the property many years ago. There is also plenty of potential for enlargement into the loft space, subject to all requisite consents. The rear sun terrace is an extraordinary vantage point from which to take in the remarkable views and an ideal place for alfresco dining. All in all a beautifully presented, contemporary, practical and manageable property, perfect as a main or second home and ideally placed to take maximum advantage of lucrative lettings if desired, enjoying an utterly extraordinary and mesmerising view. Recommended for immediate inspection by the sole agents. LOCATION

Newquay Airport 6 miles, London Gatwick about 1 hour, Padstow 12 miles, Truro 16 miles – all times/distances are approximate.

Ocean Calling enjoys a sensational and much admired setting perched on the cliff top directly above Newquay harbour commanding awe inspiring, breathtaking, uninterrupted views over the fishing harbour below and out across Newquay Bay taking in numerous beaches along the north Cornish coastline to the east as far as Trevose Lighthouse. It would be hard to imagine a more stunning and captivating vista – a scene of constant and varied maritime activity. Fore Street is one of the oldest parts of Newquay and is a particularly convenient location, between the centre of Newquay and Fistral beach which is the venue for many international surfing championships and now boasts greatly improved and expanded facilities. Ocean Calling is one of just a handful of period properties in this unique setting commanding uninterrupted and indeed uninterruptable bird’s eye harbour, beach, sea and coastal views. Within a short walk the town of Newquay caters for all day to day needs and has much to offer above and beyond its world wide reputation as a surfing Mecca. Newquay is currently enjoying a renaissance and has attracted much recent investment from many industries. The sea at Newquay is crystal clear and ideal for scuba diving and swimming from many of the beaches including Towan, Fistral, Watergate, Tolcarne and Lusty Glaze. There is a local zoo which is open all year round and Trenance Gardens offers a brilliant show of flowers and sub tropical vegetation.
