A double house overlooking a well-known tourist beach and surrounded by a caravan site has come on the market for a whopper asking price. Known as Beachside and Rigi, the two houses set in just under one acre of land, sit on Tristram Cliff, with commanding views over Polzeath Beach.
Described as offering an "amazing development opportunity, with sublime sea views", the beachside plot has had planning permission for development. Savills, which is marketing the double property with a price tag of £6m, said Rigi, built in the Fifties, is the archetypal seaside bungalow with "clean, modern lines, pale colours and suitably practical fittings for a holiday rental".
The agent said Beachside is currently a chalet comprising a living room, two bedrooms, kitchen, bathroom and sun porch, but is not habitable in its current state and would require some serious upgrading. The plot is fenced and approached through a gate from an existing drive.

A spokesperson for Savills said: "Rigi and Beachside will be instantly recognisable to all who love Polzeath. From their commanding location on Tristram cliff, they have an unbeatable, panoramic view: from the great expanse of the ocean constantly rolling into the bay, over to majestic Pentire Head, across the fine sandy beaches of Baby Bay and Hayle Bay to the village, Polzeath, in its beautiful, natural entirety, is on show.
"Beloved by generations of residents and visitors, Polzeath is one of Britain’s foremost beach holiday destinations: many would say the best." For more information visit: https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/145962113#/?channel=RES_BUY
