Although this is a large footplate set over three floors, this luxurious home doesn’t look too large from any vista, due to the various changes of direction on plan, all designed to maximise views out across the landscape, gardens and lake. The property is in greenbelt and adjacent to a waterway that has Great Crested Newts, further up the valley. Compliance with Policy was a serious planning challenge that took 12 months to overcome, without reducing the size or scale of the property that our Clients had already set their hearts on. NC Architecture’s years of experience in this area, informed our successful outcome.
