Awarded the ‘Best Architecture, Single Residence in the UK’ prize at the UK Property Awards 2012-2013,
this new 1400m², 8 bed roomed, luxury home consists of two wings
connected by a glazed foyer containing a feature stair, overlooking both
East and West, towards the wooded surroundings and the entrance
courtyard. The design takes advantage of the sites topography to set the
swimming pool and garage accommodation into the embankment, forming a
semi exposed plinth on which the house sits.
Each wing has its own semi-formal garden and living/family spaces
facing South benefiting from natural daylight, at different levels as
dictated by the slope of the site. Bedrooms, guest accommodation, office
and the swimming pool face the naturally landscaped grounds to the
North.
