Description

An exciting opportunity to acquire a coastal development site situated on Chywoone Hill within the highly sought after harbour town of Newlyn.

Planning permission has been granted for the construction of a contemporary replacement dwelling designed to respond to the natural slope of the site and its coastal surroundings. The proposed house has been carefully designed by Apex Architecture and will provide spacious accommodation arranged over three floors.

The approved design incorporates a generous open plan kitchen, dining and living space together with multiple bedrooms and additional living accommodation, with the layout taking advantage of the site levels and outlook. The property will benefit from off road parking together with landscaped garden areas.

“Once constructed the property will create a striking contemporary coastal home in one of West Cornwall’s most sought after harbour locations.”

PLANNING SUMMARY

Planning permission has been granted by Cornwall Council for the construction of a contemporary house arranged over three levels with associated parking and garden. Key planning conditions relating to materials and parking arrangements have already been formally discharged by Cornwall Council, confirming that the approved details are acceptable. Further information is available under planning reference PA20/05252 together with subsequent amendments.

The architectural approach combines traditional materials with contemporary design, including natural slate roofing and cladding, rendered elevations and modern glazing to create a high quality coastal home. Opportunities to construct new homes within the centre of Newlyn are increasingly rare, making this an attractive opportunity for a self builder, developer or purchaser seeking to create a bespoke coastal residence.

DESIGN AND SPECIFICATION

The approved dwelling has been designed to create a modern coastal home that sits comfortably within its surroundings. The specification includes the use of natural slate roofing and cladding designed specifically for exposed coastal environments. The proposed Riverstone phyllite slate provides a durable and high quality material with a long expected lifespan, making it particularly suitable for properties located close to the sea. The overall design combines contemporary architectural elements with natural materials to create a distinctive yet sympathetic addition to the street scene.
