The Process
This architectural masterpiece is a testament to innovative design and meticulous craftsmanship, offering an unparalleled living experience for those fortunate enough to call it home. At the heart of the design lies a sturdy timber frame, its warm tones complementing the landscape's natural beauty. Wrapped in brick and flint, the exterior ouses character, embracing the region's rich architectural heritage. The intricate patterns of flint add texture and depth to the structure, while the sleek lines of the brick create a sense of contemporary elegance. Topping the structure is a slate roof, its dark hues echoing the colours of the nearby cliffs and providing a striking contrast to the surrounding greenery. As the sun sets over the horizon, the roof shimmers with an ethereal glow, casting a spellbinding aura over the landscape below.
One of the most remarkable features of this new build is its integration with the natural topography of the site. The sloping terrain not only lends the home a commanding presence but also affords unique opportunities for innovative design. Beneath the main structure, an underground garage is nestled into the hillside, providing ample space for multiple vehicles while maintaining the clean lines of the exterior. Adjacent to the garage lies a cinema and party room, offering residents and guests a secluded retreat for entertainment and relaxation. Above ground, the home unfolds into a series of raised terraces and balconies, each offering breathtaking views of the surrounding seascape. From the expansive deck off the living room to the intimate balcony off the master suite, every outdoor space is thoughtfully designed to maximise the enjoyment of the coastal setting. Here, residents can savour morning coffee as the sun rises over the water or toast to another day of paradise as the stars twinkle overhead.
Inside, the home exudes a sense of refined luxury, with spacious interiors bathed in natural light. High ceilings and expansive windows create an airy atmosphere, while carefully curated finishes and fixtures add a touch of opulence to every room. From the gourmet kitchen to the sumptuous bedrooms, every detail is meticulously crafted to elevate the living experience to new heights.
As the final touches are put in place, the Old Hunstanton new build stands as a beacon of architectural excellence, a testament to the enduring allure of coastal living. With its seamless integration of modern design and natural beauty, it offers a sanctuary where residents can escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and immerse themselves in the tranquillity of their surroundings.
