New Builds
Oatlands House
New 4-Bedroom Dwelling – Weybridge
We replaced an old property with a new 5-bedroom property with modern features and a detached Garden Building. Externally we used white render, zinc cladding and plain roof tiles. Due to the slope on the site the rear open-plan Kitchen / Dining / Living area has 3m high ceilings. The proeprty also includes an air-source heat pump and solar panels. Construction was completed in 2024.
Driftwood
New 4-Bedroom Dwelling
We replaced a dated bungalow with a new 4-bedroom property with modern features. Externally we used white render and timber cladding. Internally we have introduced natural light throughout to maximised the size of each room. The proeprty also includes an air-source heat pump and solar panels.

Miles End
New 7,000sq. ft Dwelling – Epsom
Miles End is a new 7,000 sq. ft dwelling designed around the life-style of a local family who have lived in the area for many years. The primary objective of the design was for each ‘zone’ of the property to function efficiently. The introduction of a large three-storey void through the centre of the property meant that we were able to minimise the need of internal corridors and fill each area with natural light. The property includes a triple garage, home Gym, Golf Simulator, Cinema Room, double-height Kitchen, a detached Garden Building and a putting green. Construction was completed in 2019.
