7 Karn Havos, Nr Mawgan Porth

Built in splendid isolation and displaying a uniquely conceived architectural design, 7 Karn Havos forms part of an exclusive collection of just nine individual coastal homes, positioned moments from Bedruthan Steps within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on the spectacular North Cornish coast.
The setting is quite exceptional. From its elevated position, the property commands views of the Atlantic Ocean while the outlook inland is equally impressive, stretching across open countryside towards Bodmin Moor.
Designed to make the very most of its remarkable position, the house has a striking reverse-living arrangement, with three double bedrooms and two beautifully appointed bathrooms arranged across the ground floor, leaving the entirety of the first floor to the principal living accommodation.
The entire first floor is devoted to a spectacular open-plan kitchen, dining and living space beneath an impressive high vaulted ceiling. Extensive areas of argon-filled triple glazing flood the room with natural light and ensure that the impressive surroundings remain the defining feature of the interior. The contemporary kitchen has been designed with both aesthetics and practicality in mind, incorporating a comprehensive range of integrated appliances including a tall fridge/freezer, wine fridge and eye level oven and microwave. A substantial island provides a natural focal point with the kitchen flowing seamlessly into the dining and sitting areas beyond. From the kitchen space, doors open onto a terrace to the side, creating a superb extension of the principal accommodation for outdoor dining and entertaining. From the living space, one can walk straight onto the inset balcony. This elevated vantage point takes full advantage of the property’s remarkable position, with an outlook across the Atlantic ocean and witness the ever changing conditions of the sea.
The technical specification is equally impressive and reflects the energy-efficient philosophy behind Karn Havos. An air source heat pump supplies zoned underfloor heating throughout, complemented by mechanical ventilation with heat recovery (MVHR), an integrated solar photovoltaic system and highly insulated and sealed construction. Together with the triple glazing, these measures have been designed to deliver exceptionally low running costs and contribute to the property’s excellent EPC A rating.
Number 7 also benefits from parking for two vehicles together with a Zappi EV charging point. There is use of the communal gardens and an external shower - ideal for rinsing off after returning from the beach.
