At the heart of the home lies the open-plan kitchen and dining room, a fine balance of form and function. Granite worktops, a central island, integrated appliances and a contemporary electric Aga make this a space for elegant everyday living. Roof lanterns and full-height windows bathe the room in natural light, with views that stretch across the coastline.

Perhaps most enchanting of all is the tropical garden room; a bespoke Amdega design with twin glass-pitched roofs, thoughtfully lit and heated to create a year-round sun lounge.
