The project was delivered on time and 10K under budget. The client's main requirement was a house full of character. With that in mind every detail was considered. Having a design with Dormer windows, Hip roofs, stone sills, heads and keystones, English garden wall bond, corbelled brick detailed, Oak Barge Boards, Porch and panelling to the front, Oak garden room at the back of the kitchen, balcony above the garden room (coming off the master bedroom) to make the most of the superb views and built in, low level lighting. All of these elements have helped in building a house "full of character". Rather than using innovative new ideas on the build, my main focus was on packing lots of character into the house by using classic materials of Oak for the Barge Boards, Porch and Garden room. The brickwork is English Garden wall Bond. The flooring throughout is Vinyl tiles and planking which is very much en-trend and look great. For our windows we used a rather new design of flush casement windows in silvered Oak colour, manufactured by residence (R2) who are the innovators in the window industry with this style of window. The home has been shortlisted in the 'Build It' magazine awards for best windows in a new build.
