This
project of an existing property was in need of major refurbishment.The
foundations were underpinned, the walls and roof space were insulated,
new double glazed windows were installed, the large portico constructed
and the external walls rendered and painted. Inside the house the
heating system was upgraded, integrating gas and a log burning stove
to a hot water accumulator which will also be connected to solar panels
at a later date.
The ground floor,originally a garage was converted into a lounge/diner
and kitchen, space under the balcony was converted to a downstairs
loo.The first floor converted into three bedrooms, an en suite and
family bathroom. |

As
featured on the homepage, this new build home was designed and constructed
under the management of CasaVerde to a very high standard making good
use of solar heating and insulation.
Most of the materials were sourced locally, some were bought in from
Sweden to enable a high standard of efficiency. |
