Penrich

The property lies on the Beach Road at Constantine Bay and forms a part of the wholly residential development which has taken place in the latter part of the last Century. The previous bungalow, whilst built in the 1980s to a design very prevalent in North Cornwall in the 1970s, was one of a pair constructed amongst an area of two storey buildings, some with a loft storey above.

The purpose of the development of the property was to replace the rather dull and inadequate accommodation with a residence that suits the modern lifestyle of the client and takes advantage of the sea views that were not available to the previous bungalow. The materials used reflect the local vernacular of white painted rendered walls under a slate roof but with a contemporary mix of glass and cedar boarding to add distinction.

The ground floor accommodation comprises the entrance hall and stair, utility and wet room which have a separate entrance and access to the rear garden, the master bedroom suite, guest bedroom suite, two family bedrooms, bathroom, and den. The first floor is open plan under the roof with substantial glazed screens giving superb sea views and a bridge access to the private rear decked garden space.
