4 bedroom detached house for sale

This breathtaking eco-friendly creation is in a primed condition for a buyer to takeover and complete the project, either continuing with the existing design vision or add their own stamp to the finishing detail. For those dreaming of building their own spectacular forever home but have been daunted by the enormity of an entire project, this could be just the opportunity you’ve been looking for.

Much of the challenging preliminary, ground and construction work has already been completed and provisions of many materials to finish off are bought and paid for, which will be inherited by the new owner to aid a smooth transition to build completion.

The setting is simply idyllic, boasting tranquil grounds extending to c. 1.63 acres with mature trees as well is a majestic stream wrapping around the south and southwest boundary. Our clients have transformed this garden into a picture of colour, with creative planting amongst expanses of lawn and beautifully landscaped seating areas within the existing topography of the site.

Design/Vision
The property will provide an impressive, over 4300sq.ft of accommodation and C. 5000sq.ft including garaging, workshop, stores plus multiple balconies and suntrap terraces.

Entering to an immense entrance hall on the upper floor, you immediately appreciate the sense of space and calm achieved here. The hall gazes through to a framed outlook of the treetops and countryside beyond then opens to one of the many sheltered balcony areas from the reverse accommodation top floor.

The proposed internal layout will comprise 4/5 bedrooms, 4/5 reception rooms, wellness/fitness room, garden room, a vast semi open plan kitchen dining living room, utility and plant room. The layout arrangement allows for an annexe/guest accommodation wing with its own access.

This imposing footprint astonishingly sits delicately into its environment, which highlights that the goal for the Organic Architecture concept is well on its way to being achieved.

Architectural Influence
Organic Architecture is famed for producing totally unique homes, as it seeks to unify space, blending the exterior and interior to create a built environment not separate or dominant from nature but as a unified whole. With an admiration for the ground in which the building grows, this home has embraced the challenging topography to not only build into the landscape and maximise quarried areas for sheltered landscaping, but it has utilised the materials from the ground in which it is built. The lower sections of the property are clad in serpentine stone which is synonymous with this part of Cornwall.

Much inspiration stems from the work of Frank Lloyd Wright and other modernist architects of the mid-20th Century which is clear to see in the bold design.

To finish
The structure of the property has been completed using insulated concrete formwork (ICF), a very popular modern style of construction and finished with a flat roof design. Much of the lower level has been clad in serpentine stone with a variety of timber, granite serpentine cladding and silicone render still to finish. Aside from this, the majority of work to finish the project is internal, including installing services, first and second fixes and all design and decorative finishes.

The two main areas of garden are divided by the private drive, with the immaculately landscaped south facing gardens immediately from the property an absolute delight. There is parking for multiple vehicles next to the property with a double carport planned to be installed. Across from the drive is further parking and fantastic workshop/garden store. Fully insulated, tiled floors, power, water and data connection, this is a really great space.

Across the road is a separate pocket of land. Undeveloped, this area poses an opportunity as a plot (subject to necessary permisisons).
