Step inside this beautiful coastal home on 'Britain's best beach'
The ultimate surfer's paradise! This gorgeous Cornish house is on the market at Portreath beach
Do you fancy waking up to a view of Britain's best beach every morning? Or how about catching some of the best waves around just 750 yards from your front door?
Then this pad is just for you.
Chy Gweder in Portreath, Cornwall is on the market for £665,000 with Cornish estate agent Lillicrap Chilcott - and we have all the photos.
Standing prominently between the grassy verges of Portreath village and the Unesco World Heritage Site coastline, this house really is a surfer's paradise.
The award nominated cedar-clad exterior is a piece of architectural beauty. The wooden panelled cube boasts floor-to-ceiling windows to enjoy 180' panoramic views across the village and out to sea - perfect for eyeing a good wave or watching a tremendous storm roll in.
Inside the striking home, a modern layout complements the outstanding exterior. An open-plan living space on the upper ground floor (the cool way of saying 1st floor) incorporates a modern kitchen with punches of bright purple and a spacious living area to stack lots of surfboards.
Step out onto the deck to enjoy a morning coffee or a late night cocktail whilst the waves splash and slap the coastal cliffs below. Stone paving resembles a sandy beach, and a mix of glass partitions and railings make it safe for anyone admiring the view.

Downstairs, on the ground floor, a large entrance hall sits between two of the three bedrooms with unparalleled views across the untouched beach.
This sea view bedroom is typical of the property's contemporary style. An oversize headboard is luxurious and chic, and the addition of floral cushions and red accents bring a touch of cosiness.
Sat on high land watching over the sleepy town of Portreath and the best coastline in Britain, we are sure this house won't be short of a few suitors!
