‘Seeing this project come to life and with such fantastic interiors was very rewarding for everyone concerned’ ~ Amanda Perring – Director
Situated in the desirable coastal location of Perranporth, this property started its life as a traditional barn conversion in desperate need of an update. The existing layout was not entirely functional and remaining features made it feel outdated and in need of some attention.
The client came to Perring Properties with a vision of opening up the downstairs space and creating a dramatic open plan living area that improved functionality, aesthetics and flow.
Working with the client, they appointed architects to investigate options for reconfiguration that made better use of the existing space. After several site visits and client consultation meetings, they decided upon a configuration which permitted the open plan space the client had envisioned.

The redesign allowed for bonus rooms to be added from the original set up, which was a hugely positive move for the clients who gained much needed additional space.
Downstairs a new cosy snug was added, and upstairs a new bathroom complete with clever storage spaces was created. Works commenced with complete gutting of the property and removing existing walls to start work on the new layout.
In large the downstairs was kept mostly open plan, with the kitchen extended to make the most of the existing area as well as allowing for additional worktop and cupboard space, which was desperately needed.
The additional windows in the kitchen extension let much needed light pour into the room. Fitted with a bespoke handcrafted kitchen, new worktops and floors the kitchen took on a new lease of life which in part gave it a new contemporary, coastal vibe.
On the whole, keeping the downstairs living areas completely open plan, resulted in a highly desirable and stylish contemporary space.
Working together with Jill Stein Interior Design, Perring Properties interpreted the client’s vision to convert what was an outdated internal space within a traditional barn, into a stylish and modern dwelling.
Muted tones, combined with industrial chic turned this home into an elegant space which is now light and airy, perfectly complimenting the seaside setting.
This renovation and extension is a real showcase home that sits proudly on the Atlantic coast. It demonstrates Perring Properties commitment to retain every last drop of character in their conversions.
Everywhere you look in this house, you will find attention to detail, skillful architectural and interior conversation pieces as well as creative use of light and space.
If you’re looking to renovate, adapt or build your dream home, Perring Properties would be delighted to talk through your plans.
