Wheal Jenny, Perranuthnoe

A bungalow was demolished and this new Eco house designed and constructed (as a Self Build).

The four bedroom house overlooks St Michaels Mount. The garage was built using Hempcrete and the house was constructed using Nudura - both are ICF systems (Insulated Concrete Formwork) which achieve very high levels of insulation and airtightness. Combined with solar panels, a battery, mechanically ventilated heat recovery (MVHR) and a wood burner with back boiler and underfloor heating this house costs very little to run over any year or season and is flooded with natural light throughout. A future thinking client who stepped out of their comfort zone and took the challenge on to build their own home with great success.
