About
A stunning example of contemporary Cornish design, Treleigh overlooks Porthmeor beach and the town of St Ives, its cliff-top location affording breathtaking sea views across the island and out to the famous bay. St Ives with its Blue Flag beaches, art galleries and restaurants, is a 15-minute walk away and the footpaths to Zennor and the Cornish coast begin by the front gate.
Conceived by internationally renowned architect Barrie Briscoe and developed by Charles Griffiths, Studio West Architects, Treleigh is an innovative house which captures an abundance of the famous St Ives light, and the sense of space and size really does set this property apart.
Split across three floors, this thoughtfully designed eco-house sleeps 10 across five fabulous bedrooms. The bedrooms are all situated on the ground floor, all boasting direct access to the incredible wrap-around sea-view terrace.
The master bedroom features a spoiling superking bed, stunning sea views and its own ensuite, there are two flexible ensuite rooms which can be set up as superkings or twins, there’s a spacious double complete with coastal vistas and access to the family bathroom. The fifth bedroom is a remarkable space, a former art studio, this inspiring bedroom features a double bed, and 180-degree sea views. A bed-settee and cots provide extra sleeping space, if required.
Upstairs on the first-floor, guests will appreciate the open-plan living area with cosy inset woodburner, but for sunnier days, guests will enjoy the inside/outside living as it opens out onto two balcony decks with outdoor furniture. Meanwhile the comprehensive kitchen, as well as a dining area, features ample space to accommodate large groups.
A range of lavish touches are to be discovered inside the house, including a stunning indoor 14m heated swimming pool with hydro massage jet and integrated hot tub, plus a rejuvenating sauna. The built-in Sonos Sound System, SKY TV, and even a home cinema, all contribute to the feel of modernity and exclusiveness within the property. Outside you can relax around the natural reed pond, dine on the sea view terrace or listen to the water falling in the sunken garden. And there’s plenty of parking, which is a luxury for St Ives.
Treleigh is a stunning example of what can be achieved with contemporary Cornish properties and no expense has been spared to ensure your stay here will be the most complete and luxurious of its kind.

A stunning house in a beautiful location. Faultless. Views over St Ives bay are exceptional but more than enough to do in the house on a rainy day with an indoor pool and home cinema.
