★ LIVING
The spacious upstairs living area has a high vaulted Cedar ceilings in a Delta shape from which the euponemous title of the house is driven. The expansive triple glazed panoramic glass wall creates a bright and peaceful atmosphere connected to the sea, allowing you to enjoy breathtaking panoramic views over one of the most historic waterways in the world.
Bespoke sound systems have been designed for both the upstairs and downstairs living rooms, either free standing and integrated into a brain room offering wireless control or built into the walls of the downstairs living room. You can make a lot of noise without anyone hearing because of the triple glazing and space.
The comfortable seating areas of the main living room feature modern sofas and antique furniture designed by Terrance Conran for Michael, with various backless chairs that can move around with the conversation at a party. The traditional local beach stone wall fireplace adds a touch of indigenous charm for cozy evenings by the fire which turns even a rainy day into an awe inspiring spectacle of nature over the sea. Especially at sunrise and sunset watching the weather change all the way to the horizon.
Whilst principally set out to provide a safe place for children to enjoy, the downstairs sitting room is laid out so large groups of people can watch big games on the TV in comfort between that living room and the adjoining terrace via a glass wall that slides almost completely open. When the sun is shining, glass shelters protect that terrace from the wind and it becomes a powerful heat trap for sunbathing or drying off when you come up from the beach on the sunbeds.
Both living rooms have a counter, glasses and a built in fridge for drinks
★ Library
Our Great Grand Uncle, Charles Lyell, published Darwin and Wallace’s theories simultaneously in what is knows as ‘the skillful publication’ as he and his peers were deeply involved in the comprehending and serving nature via formalizing the laws herein. We are similarly interested and have an interesting library here.
Behind the fireplace in the upstairs living room there is a library filled with a collection of books and games. The books mainly about comprehending and working with nature, Buddha Dhamma, developmental psycology and other wisdom traditions from all cultures as well as a few classics. Our games shelves are growing on a monthly basis too!
There are snail seats set out for getting lost in these works of fact, Dhamma and fictions so please do enjoy them there but please note it is a working library and most of the ecological books are used as reference in the establishment of edible forest gardens so please do not take them and try to put them back in on the shelves you found them. The childrens bookshelves need work but they are coming along too. There are some toys and things for colouring there too.
★ YOGA STUDIO
The home comes with a dedicated space for daily yoga practice, with breathtaking sea views to enhance your sessions. The glass wall slides open to wooden steps, past the beach toy shed directly onto the beach. Enjoy energizing sunrise yoga or sunset meditation to the sound of the waves.
The extensive storage cupboards hold seating for 30, eco friendly yoga mats and organic hemp bolsters and blankets for 20 people as well as a load of Cork blocks and straps from ecotex.
There is a B&W sound system built into the ceiling you can join wirelessly or via a mini audio jack at the amp in the cupboard. A 4K projector can be set up to project films onto the wall beside the glass wall to create a screening, meeting, gathering or space to follow your favorite online classes.
★ OUTSIDE
The carefully designed, indigenous garden space is designed around the natural succession of the local biome and features the following and more:
✔ Lush irrigated gardens, ideal for outdoor sessions, ball games (we have badminton, football goals, volleyball in the boathouse), sunbathing or enjoying a good book.
✔ Direct beach access. Step directly from the garden onto the sandy shores of West Wittering beach.
✔ Hot Water shower with a tap for feet is a must for cleaning off salt and sand before returning on deck.

✔ Outdoor lounging, with various seating areas scattered throughout the garden for different periods of the day and tide for ultimate relaxation.

✔ Boatshed / beach toys: there are three large paddleboards, one kid’s paddleboard and some other beach toys in a boatshed with double doors that open directly onto the beach.
