The brief was to transform a traditional home, taking into account the carbon footprint, without compromising on the individual character of the building. This has resulted in light, vaulted spaces which lead seamlessly out on to the gardens that lead down through the wildflower meadow to the riverside terrace.

The house itself offers light contemporary rooms with all the latest technology. In addition to the house, there is a one bedroom guest annex, which is finished to the same superb standard. The property is an inspiration to anyone looking to find a unique, characterful home.
