On the former site of a 1960’s modest 3-bedroom house, a replacement 6,600ft² eight-bedroomed dwelling. A blend of traditional material and detailing with modern notes, in a rural location.

This extremely well-insulated building fabric combined with a Mechanical Ventilation Heat Recovery results in a very low heat loss.

The Dimplex ground source heat pump and underfloor heating through the ground and first floors result in incredibly low running costs for such a large dwelling.

The windows are from Velfac and paired with the natural Derbyshire Peakmoor stone surrounds make for a clean modern take on a traditional detail.
