Poughill, Bude, Cornwall, EX23

A striking contemporary residence where architectural elegance, cutting-edge efficiency and refined Cornish craftsmanship combine to create an exceptional family home.

Occupying an enviable position within an exclusive setting, No.2 Orchard Rise presents an outstanding opportunity to acquire a beautifully designed detached home extending to approximately 256 sq m, including the double garage. Carefully conceived to balance timeless character with modern luxury, the property showcases an impressive blend of natural materials, innovative construction and sophisticated interior styling.

From the moment of arrival, the home immediately conveys quality and attention to detail, with locally sourced Cornish stone, architectural timber cladding and matt black aluminium glazing creating a bold yet harmonious exterior aesthetic. Beyond the stone-walled entrance, the interiors unfold with an effortless sense of light, space and contemporary elegance.

The welcoming reception hall features a bespoke handmade oak staircase with glass balustrading, setting the tone for the carefully curated interiors throughout. The principal reception spaces have been designed with modern family living in mind, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor environments through expansive sliding doors and triple-aspect glazing.

At the heart of the home lies a magnificent open-plan kitchen, dining and family room — a beautifully sociable space ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The contemporary handleless kitchen is complemented by quartz work surfaces, a substantial island with breakfast bar seating, integrated appliances and a Quooker boiling water tap, combining sleek aesthetics with practical functionality.

The separate living room provides a more intimate retreat, while still enjoying a strong connection to the landscaped surroundings via sliding doors opening onto the terrace and gardens.

The ground floor accommodation further benefits from a generous guest bedroom with en-suite shower room, ideal for visiting family or multigenerational living, alongside a fully fitted utility/plant room and cloakroom.

To the first floor, four beautifully appointed double bedrooms continue the home’s elegant design language. Both the principal bedroom, and bedroom 2, each enjoy luxurious en-suite facilities, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a stylish family bathroom. The two bedrooms to the rear of the home also benefit from sliding Juliet balconies, framing elevated views across the gardens and surrounding landscape.

Beyond its visual appeal, the home has been thoughtfully engineered for modern sustainable living. Constructed using advanced Insulated Concrete Form (ICF) methods and incorporating A-rated aluminium double glazing, the property delivers exceptional thermal efficiency and year-round comfort. A comprehensive technology and energy package includes a 4kW solar PV system, air source heat pump, EV charging point, MVHR ventilation system and integrated CAT6 data cabling with Ubiquiti Wi-Fi coverage throughout.

Externally, the gardens have been beautifully landscaped to create a series of tiered outdoor spaces, complete with a spacious raised patio with glass balustrade, feature lighting and a tranquil stream forming the lower boundary — offering a peaceful and picturesque setting for relaxation and entertaining alike.

Combining striking architecture, intelligent sustainability and exceptional craftsmanship, Orchard Rise represents a rare opportunity to acquire a future-focused luxury home of genuine distinction.
