Set in a quiet and peaceful hamlet in the Cornish countryside, Trevorrick consists of two incredibly energy-efficient, architecturally designed homes. Constructed between 2011 and 2013, these remarkable houses extend to a combined area of around 4,770 sq ft. Set in beautifully landscaped gardens, the main house has been carefully orientated to the north, with the primary living spaces enjoying excellent views across the surrounding open farmland, Rock, and the tidal estuary. Complementing the main house, a beautifully light three-bedroom cottage is set in its own private gardens on the western side of the plot and currently operates as a successful holiday let. The location is ideal for access to many of Cornwall's coastal highlights, with the popular fishing town of Padstow less than 15 minutes' drive away and Port Isaac and Newquay easily reached in less than 30 minutes. Environmental Performance Sustainability and energy efficiency were integral to the design and construction of the two homes, realised in part through a strategic orientation towards the south to maximise the solar gain. There are 16 PV panels and two air source heat pumps serving the underfloor heating, which is zone controlled. Hot water is boosted by a second smaller heat pump. The Tour Sharing an extensive private driveway, the two houses are approached via a quiet country lane, with a generous provision of parking close to the house. The primary entrance is reached via a front pathway, which winds through the plant-strewn front gardens, where a solid iroko timber door is set within the cedar-clad facade. A bright hallway sets the scene, drenched with natural light from the expansive glazing. Solid ash timber flooring runs underfoot.

The glazing follows the dramatic pitch of the roofline, framing views onto the terrace and out to the open fields beyond and a modern log burner is positioned centrally.

Tamar Barns is an ensemble of three beautifully restored farm buildings nestled in a peaceful pocket of countryside on the Devon/Cornwall border, seven miles from the beaches at Bude. The farmhouse and barns were subject to a major restoration and renovation in recent years, with modern detailing and playful use of colour introduced across the light interiors. Wrapped in an acre and a half of landscaped gardens and private woodland, the plot feels wonderfully secluded. The barns are established holiday lets, posing an opportunity for rental income. Also included is a 1.5 acre plot on site, with planning permission granted for an additional four-bedroom holiday home. Details can be found here. The Architect Feilden Fowles is an award-winning London-based architecture studio. Founded by Fergus Feilden and Edmund Fowles in 2009, the practice delivers a range of buildings across the UK, producing architecture that is rich in character and distinct in identity, while also socially and environmentally responsible. Projects are underpinned by a strategy of longevity, using robust yet adaptable structures and simple but striking materials. Recent projects include a striking new faience-tiled dining hall at Homerton College, University of Cambridge and The Weston, a gallery, shop and cafe for the Yorkshire Sculpture Park built on the site of a former quarry. The Tour Approached via a quiet country lane, a long, private driveway leads to the central courtyard, around which the three homes orientate. Separate parking areas accommodate several vehicles. The main farmhouse, delineated by a partially rendered facade, is accessed via a plant-lined courtyard leading to the primary glass-fronted entrance. The original house was extended in 2012 to the designs of Fielden Fowles, pairing the character of the existing 16th-century foundations with elegant modern details. The impeccable execution of the renovation demonstrates an intimate understanding of the building, while modern material touches bring a contemporary aesthetic. The extended kitchen, dining and living space is defined by a larch timber frame with band-sawn finish, the work of EmanuelHendry. Polished concrete floors flow underfoot and the softwood frame incorporates large glazing areas into the structural fins, which seamlessly become cladding above the external ceiling line. The kitchen follows a practical yet sociable layout, with appliances tucked neatly into clean lines of bespoke cabinetry formed around a central island. The warmth of the sun pours in throughout the day, softly illuminating the dining and living areas from above. This is a wonderfully inviting room which can unfold out onto the courtyards in the warmer months. A large, characterful inglenook fireplace forms the centrepiece of the interconnected living room, an excellent space for reading, or music. A separate snug lies off one side, and a bathroom, utility, and laundry room are also positioned at ground level. The central timber staircase, finished with shiplap walls, leads to a series of bedrooms and bathrooms spanning the first floor, each with unique and complementing colouring, characterful sloping ceilings and thick beams. All have plenty of built-in storage and underfoot is either sisal or painted floorboards. Crossing the courtyard, the former cob barn (also remodelled by Feilden Fowles) is a celebration of traditional construction. A rich patchwork of cob, stone, concrete and brick forms the existing fabric, with a loadbearing timber frame housing the impressive double-height living spaces. Precast concrete surrounds form the openings, and expansive glass panels allow optimal natural light to stream in while framing garden views. Vertical fins bring architectural definition and character while providing additional solar protection and privacy to the upper floor. Ribbons of clerestory windows, inspired by Norwich Cathedral, encourage wildlife watching across the countryside. There are four bedrooms, finished in a palette of textural, natural materials, and a private garden accessed via bifold doors that lead onto a terrace with a cedar-clad hot tub. The adjacent red-brick cottage follows an inverted layout, with two bedrooms and a family bathroom tucked away downstairs, and an open plan living, dining and cooking space extending the upper level. Full-height glazing looks onto the private courtyard and extensive gardens beyond. Outdoor Space The positioning of terraces and courtyards has been well-considered to create a series of intimate, sun-drenched spaces lending well to eating, drinking, growing, and playing. A celebration of local wildlife, the gardens are rich and diverse. Pathways weave through various wooded areas with dens for children, paired with expanses of lawn allowing space for games. The formal gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped, with prairie-style grasses and herbaceous perennial borders bringing colour through the seasons. There are raised beds for herbs and flowers, a wild gravel garden, and stretches of meadowland, while mature hedges and specimen trees form the border, creating privacy and seclusion. Open fields down to the Tamar River extend beyond the perimeter. The Area The houses lie less than a five-minute drive from Pancrasweek, a peaceful hamlet located five miles west of Holsworthy in Devon. Bounded by the River Tamar, the area is characterised by leafy country lanes and a 15th-century parish church. The surrounding area is known for its open fields and rolling countryside, with extensive walking and cycling routes easily accessible from the home.

Fascinating Grade II* Listed Village House with enchanting gardens DescriptionArchitecturally interesting, Parsonage Farm has been a well loved family home for over 50 years. It presents an exciting opportunity to acquire a house brimming with character to update for 21st century family living. The timeline and history are evident, inside and out, and speak of the story of this house. The oldest part dates to circa 1650, with a typical Queen Anne facade added in 1702, showcasing the classic symmetry of the style.Original architectural and design details abound throughout the house. Chequered stone flooring, fielded panelling with moulded dado rail to the drawing room, principal and guest bedrooms, dentil and moulded cornicing, all feature. A richly carved, early 18th century Baroque white marble fireplace takes centre stage in the drawing room. Fifteen pane horizontal sashes, two beautiful leaded light Ipswich windows below carved winged heads to the outside wall are thought to have been repurposed from the dissolution of the monasteries. Fifteen pane vertical sashes, with their original wooden shutters, feature window seats below. The front door opens to the dining hall with its stone flagged floor, bespoke bookcases and burr walnut fireplace surround. Just off is a study with its book lined walls and a cloakroom.
