Architect's Treetop Retreat Near Beaches, 5 Bed, Infrared Sauna, Cinema & More

Architect-Designed Treetop Retreat on the Cornish Coast

Perched among the treetops in the St Agnes parish and crafted by a RIBA award-winning architect, this striking coastal retreat pairs bold design with wild natural beauty — just minutes from the surf at Porthtowan, Chapel Porth and Trevaunance Cove.

Light-filled and expansive, the five-bedroom, five-bathroom hideaway is all soaring ceilings, open-plan living, and wall-to-wall glass that brings the outside in. The kitchen is made for slow mornings and sociable evenings, with a breakfast bar for casual grazing, a cosy kitchen table for family meals, and a separate dining area for more formal feasting. Step outside and you’ll find a third dining space on the deck — perfect for long, golden-hour dinners beneath the trees.

There’s a boot room for sandy wetsuits and muddy wellies, plus a separate utility room to keep everything running smoothly. You’ll also find a private infrared sauna, a fully equipped gym (complete with NordicTrack treadmill and weights rack), a cinema snug, and a games room with a full-size ping pong table. Both the indoor and outdoor dining areas comfortably seat 14.

The garden is designed for both play and relaxation — with a trampoline, climbing frame, basketball net, BBQ area, and a chic outdoor lounge with garden sofas, perfect for soaking up the sun or winding down with a glass of wine under the stars.

And when you’re ready to explore? You’re a stone’s throw from the laid-back buzz of St Agnes — one of Cornwall’s coolest enclaves, beloved for its indie boutiques, surf culture, creative spirit and easygoing beach cafés.

Whether you’re gathering with friends or escaping with family, this design-forward treetop bolthole is your gateway to a slower, wilder kind of luxury on the Cornish coast.
