Chough Rock

 

Chough Rock is an exciting development opportunity in the heart of the Cornish coastline yet only a ten minute walk from fine restaurants and charming shops. Planning consent has been granted for a spectacular contemporary house set within an ample plot with its own beach ownership to mean low water. Opportunities like this just do not exist in this highly sought after locality which is an Area of Great Landscape Value and of extraordinary natural beauty. This section of coastline is in one of the most coveted, remarkable and breathtaking frontline waterside settings in the southwest of Great Britain. It sits contentedly between Hannafore Point in the west and Rame Head in the east, with stunning views spanning from Whitsand Bay across Looe Bay to Looe Island, and beyond to the Eddystone Lighthouse which is clearly visible to the naked eye.

 

Chough Rock is an exceedingly desirable 'front-line' property and is situated in an exceptional elevated position within the exclusive area of Plaidy, to the east of the pretty harbour town of East Looe. Plaidy comprises a collection of mostly cliff-top properties separating Looe Bay from the unspoilt countryside that is situated behind.

 

The new dwelling is unquestionably of landmark architecture, forging new standards in residential design. Through the use of towers and sweeping elevations, an aesthetically appealing design for the new home has been achieved. By utilising a carefully selected palate of materials, the new home pushes forward the boundaries of contemporary architecture in a modern environment, maximises the benefits of the site, allows for the South facing aspect to take full advantage of the natural light and energy, and does not appear excessive or unusual from the road.

 

Today’s finest new homes are contemporary and historical, relevant and vigorous. Flexible in design and inherently beautiful, they give evidence to the fact that the centuries old flair of architecture has been reinvigorated through practical and environmentally sensitive forms and shapes. A modern landmark building is like a large piece of furniture, intended to be both visible and appreciated. One of the most appealing aspects of Chough Rock is the quality and variety of its spaces. Whilst the exterior has been designed to maximise the experience of being part of nature, the interior allows for a unique and personalised work of art. Interior spaces are open, airy and light filled, made more comfortable by the warmth of the sun.
