A striking clifftop home 'designed around the idea of two pairs of binoculars' is on the market for £5million.

Llawnroc is a waterfront five-bedroom property that offers panoramic views of Porthcothan Bay, a quiet cove dubbed one of Cornwall's 'best kept secrets'.

The contemporary home, built a decade ago, has four 'lenses' each angled to capture the views of the surrounding coastline and seascape. All the main rooms are sea-facing and have floor-to-ceiling glass.

The unique design is energy efficient and the bedrooms have been planned to capture the morning sun from the east, with the main living areas placed in a triangle widening towards the sea views and sunsets.

The property has 3,390 so ft of accommodation. On the lower ground floor there is a bedroom with en-suite, a home office that could also be another bedroom, a utility and a large open plan kitchen/dining room with a pantry and walk in fridge and bi-fold doors that open to the garden.
