A new 4 bedroom prefabricated timber framed dwelling designed as two parallel timber framed and clad ranges in a very picturesque Hampshire Conservation Area setting. A replacement dwelling for a tired flat roofed 1960s building but requiring 19 neighbour consultations, close to a flood plain with streams along two boundaries on piled foundations with a Southern Water Sewer running diagonally under the property. Enthusiastically supported by East Hants District Council Conservation Architect and Planning Officers. Prefabricated Timber Framed sustainable low energy construction with 240mm insulation to external walling with Western Red Cedar Boarding as cladding, Natural Slate roofing, Renewable energy systems with Air Source Heat Pump serving underfloor heating to all floors, centralised vacuum cleaning ports, mechanical heat recovery system as well as a laundry chute. A carpenter’s delight and a credit to Rusty for the excellent cladding detailing & finishing work. Construction started Summer 2011, completion of external envelope 2012/13, internal works and landscaping still in progress winter 2014 with client managing the completion of the project with NDA periodic inspections.
