Dingle Court, Drakewalls, Gunnislake PL18

An exceptional opportunity to own one of just two newly built homes, finished to a high specification with a strong focus on energy efficiency and contemporary design. Set in a quiet cul-de-sac with stunning valley views, this property offers over 2,100 sq. Ft of thoughtfully designed living space and flexible accommodation to suit a wide range of lifestyles.

Location:

These two newly built homes are tucked away in a quiet, private cul-de-sac on the edge of Drakewalls, offering a sense of seclusion while still being within easy walking distance of local amenities. Nearby conveniences include a fuel station, a mini-supermarket, and a train station, making the location both peaceful and practical. Set on a gently elevated plot, the properties enjoy attractive southerly views over the Tamar Valley—particularly from the first-floor rooms.

Description:

This exceptional, newly constructed home combines high-quality modern finishes with outstanding eco-conscious design. Built to a standard that approaches Passivhaus performance, the property is thoughtfully equipped with a range of energy-efficient features and contemporary comforts throughout.

Offering over 2,100 sq. Ft. Of deceptively spacious accommodation, the layout is both bright and versatile—designed to suit a variety of lifestyles. With 4/5 double bedrooms and four bathrooms, the home is ideal for growing families, couples seeking generous living space, or those looking to downsize without compromise.

Outside, the property benefits from a sizeable garden to the side and rear, providing plenty of potential for personal landscaping. A garage (located in a nearby block) and two private parking spaces add to the practicality of this well-considered home.

The Home:

Step inside and you’ll discover bright, spacious interiors finished with real attention to detail. The home features high-quality Karndean flooring alongside plush carpeting, wide solid timber internal doors for improved accessibility, and high-performance composite double-glazed windows designed for maximum reflectivity. The stylish kitchen is equipped with sleek Silestone worktops, while additional modern touches include a Bluetooth-integrated extractor fan, stream-free mirrors, and hardwired lan, hdmi, and usb ports throughout the property for seamless connectivity.

Ground Floor:

The entrance hall provides a welcoming introduction to the home and leads to all principal ground floor rooms. The sitting room is light-filled and inviting, creating a perfect space for relaxation. A versatile home office, which could also serve as a fifth bedroom, is ideal for guests or multi-generational living.

At the heart of the home is a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining, and family room, complete with tri-fold doors that open onto the garden—perfect for entertaining. A separate utility room provides practical storage and laundry space, while the ground floor is completed by a modern shower room featuring a Mira Decor electric shower.

First Floor:

Upstairs, the generous principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite and a Juliette balcony that enjoys elevated views across the valley. The second bedroom also features its own en-suite, while bedrooms three and four are both spacious doubles, one of which includes an additional Juliette balcony. The family bathroom is beautifully appointed with an oval bath, a walk-in shower enclosure, and a stylish twin-basin vanity unit.

Outside:

The rear and side gardens are enclosed by a combination of rendered boundary walls and timber fencing, creating a safe, private space that’s ideal for families and pets. Intentionally left as a blank canvas, the outdoor space offers new owners the exciting opportunity to design and landscape the garden to suit their own vision and lifestyle. The property also benefits from a garage with power and allocated parking.

Additionally, there is the option to purchase a further garage and an adjoining parcel of land to the side of the house and garden, offering even more flexibility—whether for additional parking, storage, or future development potential (subject to any necessary consents).

Services:

The property is connected to mains water and electricity, with private drainage via a septic tank. A rainwater harvesting system supplies the WCs, supporting the home’s eco-friendly credentials. Heating is provided by a zoned underfloor system powered by an efficient air-source heat pump. Superfast broadband is available, ensuring strong connectivity for home working or streaming.

Mobile voice and data coverage is available through all four major UK providers (source: Ofcom online checker).
