The Dunes, Upton Towans, Hayle, Cornwall

Set within an exclusive gated development of just nine individually designed homes, 7 The Dunes is a contemporary detached bungalow completed in 2020 — a small, architect-led scheme positioned on the edge of the Upton Towans nature reserve, where a stroll through the dunes brings you onto three miles of golden sand at Gwithian and St Ives Bay.

The design speaks for itself: Cornish granite and larch timber cladding, dramatic sloping rooflines and floor-to-ceiling glazing combine to create a home that sits naturally in its coastal setting.

Inside, the open-plan living space is the heart of the property — light-filled, with engineered oak flooring, a sleek modern kitchen with integrated appliances, and wide sliding doors opening directly onto the garden.

Two double bedrooms both enjoy excellent natural light, with the principal bedroom served by an en-suite shower room and a matching second shower room serving guests. A utility and plant room keeps the practical side of life neatly out of sight.

The eco credentials are genuine rather than cosmetic. An air-source heat pump provides all heating and hot water through underfloor heating, supported by high insulation levels, low air permeability design and fibre broadband direct to the property. Running costs reflect it.

Outside, professionally landscaped wraparound gardens blend lawns with tropical palms and coastal planting — private, established and low-maintenance. A fully insulated garden cabin provides a ready-made home office, studio or occasional guest space, and a gravelled driveway offers parking for two vehicles.

An annual charge of £425 covers maintenance of the development's roads and communal gardens, servicing of the gated entry, public liability insurance and a sinking fund.

Whether as a permanent coastal home, a lock-up-and-leave retreat or a long-term investment, this is a rare opportunity in one of west Cornwall's most desirable beachside locations. Viewings strictly by appointment.
