Top awards for Cornish prestige housebuilder

A premium housebuilder in Cornwall is celebrating after clinching two prestigious national awards.

Legacy Properties has won UK Property Awards for the best apartment and best residential development for Fistral House, its exclusive collection of ten luxury apartments and flagship penthouses overlooking Fistral beach on north Cornwall’s iconic Atlantic coast.

Now in their 27th year, the UK Property Awards celebrate the highest levels of achievement by companies operating in all sectors of the property trade.  They’re judged by an independent panel of 80 industry experts who focus on design, quality, service, innovation, originality, and sustainability.

“This is the latest in a series of proud moments for Legacy, and a real testament to the team’s hard work, professionalism, and ambitions,” said Legacy Properties’ managing director, Nick Long.

“We set exceptionally high standards for ourselves and work with only the best contractors and suppliers to ensure we’re providing a top quality build and finish.

“We’re continuously aspiring to excellence with all of our developments, so winning these awards brings a great sense of achievement for the entire team.”

With its trademark attention to detail, Legacy built Fistral House using the finest locally-sourced materials. The brief to their architects was to maximise the indoor living space whilst celebrating the apartments’ exceptional coastal location and remaining sensitive to the surrounding area.

The two and three-bedroomed homes each benefit from open-plan living, kitchen and dining areas, oak flooring, and remote access underfloor heating. Bespoke contemporary kitchens have been created by leading Cornish designer, Treyone, and equipped with state-of-the-art appliances.

Just a stone’s throw from the ocean, the apartments boast expansive balcony terraces, topped with millboard decking, and finished with frameless glass balustrades.

The awards will be presented at a ceremony at London’s Royal Lancaster Hotel on October 26. The highest scoring winners in each category will go through to the International Property Awards and judged against peers from around the world.

Legacy Properties, which is based in Quintrell Downs, is a family-run premium developer of luxury coastal properties in Cornwall. The company, which employs 16 people, has been acquiring, designing and building prestige homes in the county for the last ten years.
