Elegant Edwardian coastal home with panoramic sea views near Mousehole
Description
History - Built in 1912 for a French sea captain seeking life as close to the ocean as possible, Carn Du is an elegant Edwardian villa set in an elevated position above the Atlantic, within walking distance of the historic harbour village of Mousehole. The house retains the scale, proportions and character of its period, enhanced by exceptional natural light and uninterrupted coastal views. Located on the Penwith Peninsula-one of Cornwall’s most celebrated and unspoilt landscapes-Mousehole has long attracted artists and writers including Charlie Chaplin, Dylan Thomas, Charles Laughton, and Gwen and Augustus John. Carn Du is a house of rare charm in one of Cornwall’s finest coastal settings.
Main House - The principal rooms enjoy panoramic sea views spanning Penzance, Mount’s Bay, the Lizard and the rugged coastline west towards Lamorna and Land’s End. The ground floor is arranged to maximise light and flow, with a large family kitchen, open-plan dining room, sitting room with log fire and sunroom all interconnecting to create generous and versatile living spaces. The first floor offers five well-proportioned bedrooms, three with en-suite bathrooms, along with a family bathroom. Two principal bedrooms feature bay windows and open onto a shared balcony with far-reaching sea views, one with a Victorian enamelled bath beneath the window.
Annexe - Attached to the main house is a self-contained annexe with its own private entrance, providing flexible accommodation for guests, extended family or staff. It enjoys a side sea view and includes a kitchen, shower room and combined bedroom and sitting area.
The Cottage - Carn Du Cottage is a separate, self-contained property offering two double bedrooms arranged over two floors. The ground floor features a spacious open-plan sitting, dining and kitchen area with a wood-burning stove, while the first floor includes a family bathroom and two double bedrooms, one of which opens onto a balcony. All rooms enjoy open sea views. The cottage can be used independently or in conjunction with the main house, making it ideal for multi-generational living, guest accommodation or ancillary use.
Exterior & Pool - The gardens provide a private and peaceful setting with uninterrupted coastal views. A heated outdoor infinity pool (7m x 4m) is positioned to overlook the sea and is open from April to mid-September. The grounds offer an exceptional vantage point from which to enjoy Cornwall’s dramatic coastline, ever-changing light and spectacular sunsets.
Location
Mousehole is one of Cornwall’s most cherished harbours, with winding streets, stone cottages and a sandy, medieval harbour steeped in timeless charm. Cliff paths lead to secluded coves along a spectacular coastline. Renowned for its beauty, beaches and clear waters, West Cornwall offers exceptional coastal living, with Penzance and the vibrant fishing port of Newlyn nearby, providing excellent dining, culture, transport links and access to some of Cornwall’s finest beaches.
