Velidhu
A Rare Award-Winning Contemporary Home Inspired by Passive House Principles
Hidden behind electric sliding gates in the heart of Cornwall, Velidhu is an exceptional contemporary home where award-winning architecture, outstanding energy performance and beautifully crafted living spaces come together to create a home unlike almost anything else currently available in the county.
Designed around the movement of the sun and inspired by Passive House methodologies, every aspect of the property has been carefully considered to maximise natural light, minimise energy consumption and create an extraordinary sense of comfort throughout the seasons.
The result is a home that feels as good as it looks.
At the centre of the house is a spectacular glazed sunspace that acts as both an architectural focal point and a naturally heated living space. Flooded with sunlight throughout the day, it forms the heart of the home, linking the principal living areas while blurring the boundary between indoors and out.
The generous open-plan kitchen and dining room is designed for modern family life, while the spacious lounge opens directly onto beautifully landscaped gardens and an impressive Millboard entertaining terrace complete with hot tub. Large areas of glazing frame the garden from almost every room, creating a constant connection with nature.
Accommodation extends to over 2,250 sq ft and has been designed with exceptional flexibility in mind. The ground floor includes a spacious double bedroom with en-suite, making it ideal for guests, independent relatives or multi-generational living. Upstairs, the dramatic cantilevered principal suite is complemented by two further double bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom, while a separate cloakroom serves the ground floor.
Throughout the house, architectural detailing elevates everyday living. Glass floors draw natural daylight through the centre of the building, bespoke storage has been seamlessly integrated into the design, and carefully selected natural materials create interiors that are calm, timeless and filled with light.
Behind the architecture lies an impressive level of engineering. Triple glazing, exceptional insulation, Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery, an air source heat pump, photovoltaic panels, solar battery and rainwater harvesting combine to create a home that is remarkably economical to run while maintaining outstanding comfort all year round. Awarded an EPC rating of A, Velidhu demonstrates that sustainability and luxury can exist in perfect harmony.
Outside, the lifestyle continues. Landscaped gardens provide complete privacy, generous lawns offer space for family life, while the entertaining terrace and hot tub create the perfect setting for relaxing or hosting friends. Green roofs soften elements of the architecture and reinforce the home's connection with its landscape.
A separate fully insulated and triple-glazed outbuilding, currently used as a gym and workshop, benefits from power and water and offers exciting potential as a home office, creative studio or self-contained annexe, subject to any necessary consents. To the rear of the property, a second gated entrance provides access to a substantial hardstanding area offering further potential for additional garaging, workshop space or holiday accommodation, subject to planning permission.
Despite its peaceful setting, Velidhu enjoys one of Cornwall's most convenient locations. The A30 is moments away, placing both the north and south coasts within easy reach. Watergate Bay, Mawgan Porth, Newquay Airport, Bodmin and nearby railway connections are all within approximately fifteen minutes, making the property ideally positioned for both everyday life and exploring the very best of Cornwall.
Velidhu is more than simply an energy-efficient home. It is an award-winning piece of contemporary architecture designed to enrich everyday living through light, space, sustainability and craftsmanship.
Recognised nationally for both its design and environmental performance, the property has received numerous accolades including:
• Built It Award – Best Eco Home
• Cornwall Sustainability Award – New Build Winner
• International Green Apple Award – Silver Award
• labc Building Excellence Awards – South West Finalist
Properties of this calibre are exceptionally rare.
Velidhu offers a unique opportunity to own one of Cornwall's finest contemporary homes.
