A DREAM five-bedroom woodland home that featured on Channel 4’s Grand Designs and is based on the 80s movie Ferris Bueller’s Day Off has gone on sale for £2.5m.
Natural Bridges, in Mawgan Porth, Cornwall, was inspired by the house that was home to Cameron – Ferris’ best friend in the hit 1986 film.

In one memorable scene filmed at the luxury property, Cameron trashes his father’s beloved Ferrari which ends up smashing through the window of the cantilevered garage.
The property owner, Harry Anscombe, had become obsessed with living somewhere that resembled the floating steel and glass home in Illinois, US.
And when he showed off the build on Grand Designs in 2018, presenter Kevin McCloud described it as a “stonking triumph”.
It is set in a private eight-acre wooded valley, one mile inland from the County’s rugged northern coast.

The new owner will also acquire a separate traditional two-bedroom Cornish stone barn in its own enclosed garden with hot-tub.
There is also planning permission for a cabin in the woods and there are several outbuildings – including a converted dairy with a kitchen and World War Two Nissen hut and a car-port.

“This house would be perfect for a young family.
“Some of the people who have looked at it already seem to know the area very well, it’s the kind of place you fall in love with.”
