Polkirt Hill, Mevagissey

Positioned in an elevated setting above the picturesque harbour of Mevagissey, Wild Air is a remarkable 1930s detached home that captures the essence of timeless coastal living. With far-reaching sea views that stretch across the harbour to the horizon, this characterful and spacious property offers beautifully arranged accommodation over three floors as well as a self-contained annexe, ideal for guests, holiday letting or extended family.

Thoughtfully updated while retaining its period charm, the house is rich with original features including stained glass, pine doors, picture rails and a graceful turning staircase. Deep bay windows invite natural light and frame the breathtaking views, most notably from the main sitting room and sunroom, where the sea feels almost within reach. The well-appointed kitchen connects seamlessly with a dedicated dining room, creating a sociable heart to the home while a large utility space and ground floor cloakroom enhance the practicality for everyday life.

Upstairs, the first floor provides two comfortable bedrooms and a family bathroom along with access to a private terrace overlooking the coast, the perfect spot for morning coffee or evening sunsets. The upper floor features a generous master room complete with en suite facilities and a striking feature porthole window that looks out across the coastline — arguably the most spectacular vantage point in the house and offering total privacy.

Set within the property but feeling completley seperate from the main residence, the stylish annexe spans two floors and enjoys its own private entrance. The ground floor features an open plan kitchen and living space while upstairs offers a beautifully finished double bedroom with en suite and glorious sea views. Currently operating as a successful holiday let, the annexe provides not only flexibility and independence but also a valuable source of income.
