The company has outlined plans to develop the building into 14 'cutting edge' apartments. These will be divided into 12 two-bedroom flats, with the two penthouses having three bedrooms each.
Nicola Markham, South West sales director for Acorn, said the plans were a sign of company's continued support for Newquay.
“We are confident that Newquay will continue to enjoy its growing reputation as one of the UK's top lifestyle destinations and that is why we have taken the opportunity of buying another prime location on the town's stunning Headland Road.
“There are very few places in the country that can boast a world famous surfing beach on its doorstep, fabulous views on both sides and a way of life that has a real buzz to it, but that can, at the same time, offer perfect tranquillity.”
The new scheme will be known as Revelation and, like Acorn Blue's three other developments on Headland Road – Zinc, Pearl and Azure – Acorn says it will benefit from some of the country's most exciting new architecture, cutting edge luxury and unsurpassed views of Fistral Beach on one side and Newquay Bay on the other. The architects contracted to work on the project are Penryn-based CAD Architects – overall winner in the 2007 Carrick District Council Design Awards for Lemon Street Market and Woodlane House in Kenwyn, Truro.

More than half of the available units in the Zinc complex, which is due for completion in spring 2009, have been sold off plan, only four are left unsold in Pearl and three of the 14 apartments in Azure have already been snapped up – 17 months before their due completion date.
Construction work has also moved up a gear with groundworks completed and superstructure well under way on the Zinc project. Pearl's foundations have also commenced. However, to avoid the risk of additional disruption and traffic congestion during summer, further building work on the Azure site has been delayed until the autumn.
David Stein, Acorn's regional operations director, said: “Headland Road is the main access route to Fistral Beach and heavy construction traffic will inevitably cause delays and frayed tempers. We want to help minimise problems by postponing Azure's groundworks until after the peak tourist season
