A brand new, eco-friendly, contemporary apartment in a prestigious beachside development. 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms (master en suite), open-plan lounge/kitchen/dining area. Parking space, landscaped gardens.
Energy efficiency and sustainability is a great consideration at Clipper Cove. There is more than the normal thickness of insulation made from recycled newspaper in the walls, while in the roof the insulation is created from hemp and cotton. The extensive use of timber means greater energy savings and fewer chemicals involved in the building process. The installation of the latest ground source heat pumps to run the central heating and hot water system, along with underfloor heating, will ensure lower heating bills and a cleaner environment.

SITUATION
Praa Sands is perfectly situated to offer a peaceful setting with easy access to all modern amenities and travel communications. Clipper Cove is eight miles from Penzance, a town with an eclectic mix of art studios, elegant historic buildings, well-stocked shops and award-winning restaurants. The town has a main line railway station that connects directly with London Paddington and the north of England - it is also on the main A30 trunk road that takes you in and out of Cornwall. Helston, six miles away, is an ancient market town and gateway to the Lizard Peninsula. Hayle, also six miles away, has a new, easily accessible out of town retail development together with one of the finest beaches in Cornwall stretching for three miles to Godrevy Lighthouse. Praa Sands sits between two other desirable beach locations, Prussia Cove and Mullion Cove, like Praa, they are unspoilt and perfect for walking, swimming or sunbathing. Praa Sands is also a short distance from Porthleven, a picturesque fishing village, which has excellent restaurants and is known as one of the world's best locations for experienced surfers. Ideal for those who enjoy and value their leisure time, Clipper Cove is perfectly placed to take advantage of the wonderful outdoor opportunities that exist in this part of Cornwall. Great surf and surf hire facilities are on your doorstep along with the coast path and spectacular scenery - Praa Sands golf course is only minutes away.
For those who prefer a bit of history Pengersick Castle, a medieval tower, is a short walk away and there are plenty of stories about the wrecking and smuggling that took place at the bay until the 1700's. On the beachfront there is a great bar with views over the ocean, a surf shop and small cafe.
