Description

Bow Green is a sublime coastal retreat just half a mile from the sandy beaches at Maenporth and three miles south of Falmouth. Nestled in an acre of private gardens, its strategically elevated position provides spectacular sea-facing views inside and out. Light ripples throughout its 3,000 sq ft of space, which includes four generous bedrooms and a series of cleverly interconnected living spaces.

The Tour

Bow Green is set on Trelawney Close, a quiet and residential street set against the backdrop of the sea. Its site is secluded, approached via a long private driveway with a garage as well as space to park several cars. The house's profile melds traditional forms with a decidedly contemporary outlook; dark-framed glazing punctuates its white exterior, hinting at the brightness that rings within.

There are several points of entry to the house, a configuration that anchors the building in its grounds. A timber door on the house's northerly side opens to a skylight-lit hallway, where white walls are paired with polished concrete flooring. Doors on the right-hand side lead to a generous utility room, smart WC and study respectively.

At the far end of the plan is a space currently used as a library, with brilliant built-in bookshelves along one side. A modernist-style ribbon window wraps around one corner, while a large picture window spans almost floor-to-ceiling and frames a view out to the garden greenery.

A large sliding timber door opens to the expansive open-plan living room and kitchen. Here and throughout, these doors function as a subtle mode of delineating that allows for flexible and open living. The sitting area unfolds directly beyond and is orientated around a Scan 50-series wood-burning stove. Windows of varying sizes run along the room's two aspects, creating and sustaining a visual connection with the ocean.

Long boards of oak ground the room and continue in the kitchen, which is tucked behind a half wall. Here, timber and stainless-steel units and a matching island provide plenty of storage and preparation space. There is a range with a gas hob and two electric ovens, a fridge/freezer which are all from Smeg, and a dishwasher. A large dining area is arranged in the adjacent space, in front of a run of floor-to-ceiling glazing that provides access to the garden and creates a particularly atmospheric sea-facing backdrop.

Oak stairs with a stainless-steel handrail ascend to the first floor, where the house's four bedrooms are arranged. All have been orientated to face the water and are accordingly filled with a singularly lovely coastal light. Each has a skylight, while three have pristine en suite shower rooms. A fourth similarly well-executed bathroom serves the remaining room.
