A substantial, detached, well appointed, Five bedroom family home in Mawnan Smith with sea views
Pentreath is an impressive and substantial detached family residence occupying a private and elevated position, commanding delightful views across Falmouth Bay towards St Anthony's Lighthouse. Significantly enlarged and enhanced by the current owners since their purchase in 2019, the property now offers exceptionally versatile and well-balanced accommodation extending to a generous footprint, ideally suited to modern family life.
Approached via a private lane, the property is accessed through gated entrances leading to an expansive driveway providing ample parking for five or more vehicles, together with the added benefit of a Tesla EV charging point.
Occupying a level and well-maintained plot, the house sits broadly centrally within its grounds and is complemented by attractive, low-maintenance gardens. Architecturally, the property is distinguished by its symmetrical triple-pitched roof design and traditional Delabole slate elevations, with many of the principal rooms and bedrooms enjoying far-reaching views across the gardens towards the coastline beyond.
The extensive programme of improvements undertaken by the current owners has greatly enhanced both the scale and versatility of the accommodation. The extension incorporates two additional double bedrooms, a superb games and entertaining room, and a striking galleried entrance hall flooded with natural light from overhead Velux windows. The games room is a particularly impressive space, featuring double doors and two sets of bi-fold doors opening directly onto the gardens, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. A well-appointed utility room provides additional practicality, housing laundry facilities, a sink and the solar panel inverter system.
A pillared entrance porch leads through to a welcoming reception hall, from which stairs rise to the principal bedroom suite. Occupying an elevated position within the house, this delightful retreat enjoys a private balcony with timber cladding and glass balustrading, perfectly positioned to take advantage of the views across the gardens towards the sea. The suite further benefits from an en suite shower room, excellent fitted wardrobe space and extensive eaves storage.
The ground floor accommodation is exceptionally well proportioned throughout. There are two generous double bedrooms, one benefiting from an en suite shower room and bi-fold doors opening onto the rear garden. The dual-aspect sitting room is an inviting and light-filled space, centred around an inset fireplace and enjoying outlook to the side and rear.
The kitchen is beautifully appointed and fitted with an extensive range of cabinetry and integrated appliances, complemented by engineered oak flooring. High-quality appliances include a Neff induction hob, twin Neff ovens and a Neff ceiling-mounted extractor. Thoughtfully designed lighting includes both recessed spotlights and roof-mounted sun tunnels, enhancing the natural brightness of the room. The adjoining dining area flows effortlessly from the kitchen and opens through bi-fold doors onto the terrace and gardens beyond, creating an ideal environment for both family living and entertaining.
The more recently constructed wing of the property is connected via an internal corridor and benefits from its own independent entrance. This highly flexible arrangement lends itself perfectly to multigenerational living, guest accommodation, or potential income generation, subject to any necessary consents.
On the first floor of this wing are two particularly spacious double bedrooms. One features a walk-in wardrobe and a striking floor-to-ceiling glazed A-frame window overlooking the rear gardens, while the second enjoys a dual-aspect outlook with doors opening to the rear. These bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom accessed from the attractive galleried landing.

Wonderfully private and spacious throughout, with lovely level lawns with great sea views across Falmouth bay. I particularly like the proximity to the village and Maenporth beach.
