Esplanade Road, Newquay, Cornwall, TR7

A LANDMARK COASTAL RESIDENCE ON CORNWALL’S MOST DRAMATIC COASTLINE, OWNING PART OF THE CORNISH COAST AND BENEFITING FROM ITS OWN PRIVATE SEA POOL.

Description
Occupying one of the most breathtaking coastal positions in the United Kingdom, King Arthur forms part of an iconic Art Deco residence standing proudly on the unspoilt East Pentire Headland in Newquay. Originally constructed in 1927 as an exclusive private home, the building was later sympathetically converted into just four individual apartments, creating an exceptionally rare opportunity to own a piece of Cornwall’s coastal heritage. Perched between the world famous surfing beach at Fistral and the sweeping sands of Crantock, the apartment enjoys uninterrupted panoramic views across the Atlantic Ocean, rugged coastline and surrounding headland. The setting is both dramatic and remarkably private, with the headland itself protected by village green status and shared with only one neighbouring property: the renowned Lewinnick Lodge.

The Property
The apartment is arranged across a single level and benefits from level access directly from the car park despite occupying part of the upper floor of the building. A generous entrance hall leads into a contemporary open plan living space and kitchen, fitted with integrated appliances including hob, oven, fridge and freezer. Large windows and balcony access ensure the extraordinary coastal backdrop remains ever-present throughout the principal accommodation. There are three bedrooms, one with direct access onto a second balcony, together with a family bathroom/WC and separate cloakroom. Gas fired central heating is provided via a combination boiler, while most windows are fitted with modern uPVC double glazing. The property also benefits from two parking spaces, with ample additional parking available nearby.

.
Few homes offer such a complete connection to the coastline. From the apartment, residents can walk directly onto the South West Coast Path, explore the surrounding cliffs and beaches, or descend to the property’s remarkable private sea pool carved naturally into the rocks below. The area is renowned for its wildlife, sunsets and storm-watching, offering a constantly changing seascape throughout the year. The building itself has long attracted attention for its striking architecture and unique position, even appearing as a filming location in The Inspector Lynley Mysteries. Today, it remains one of Cornwall’s most distinctive and recognisable coastal residences.

.
Despite its wonderfully secluded atmosphere, King Arthur is within walking distance of central Newquay via the cliffside coastal path. Nearby are the spectacular landscapes of Pentire Headland, The Gannel Estuary and Little Fistral Beach, while Newquay Airport and the A30 provide excellent connectivity across Cornwall and beyond. The lease also includes ownership of a portion of the stunning Pentire Headland, giving you privileged access to one of Cornwall’s most iconic coastal landscapes. Whether as a permanent residence, second home or exceptional coastal retreat, King Arthur represents an extraordinarily rare opportunity to acquire a home in one of Cornwall’s most iconic waterfront settings.
