Project Overview

This traditional country house in North Hampshire showcases a harmonious blend of classic farmhouse design and modern eco-friendly features. The main house is lime-rendered, with striking limestone quoins, cills, and plinths, giving it a timeless, elegant appearance. An interesting feature is the farmhouse-style link, with oak-vaulted ceilings, connecting the main house to a timber-clad garage, creating a seamless flow between spaces.

The property also incorporates sustainable design elements, including a ground source heat pump for energy-efficient heating. Externally, extensive landscaping and patio works enhance the natural beauty of the site, offering a balance of aesthetic appeal and practicality.
