Beechwood - living room view out

Nestled into the steeply sloping site and overlooking the Salcombe estuary, a key design driver for the house was maximising the view and connection with the garden, and large areas of glazing were provided no the south elevation. This glazing can be opened up to allow the outside spaces to become part of the living experience. The house is entered at first floor, with living and kitchen areas at this level, and a large balcony directly off these spaces was therefore critical to provide outside dining and living space. Below this the bedrooms are sheltered by the overhang – giving protection and privacy. The swimming pool is located directly outside of the two bedrooms, and reflects morning sunlight onto the ceilings of the bedrooms.
