New Houses Pair Near Saffron Walden

View across the fields at the rear of the two houses

The site for these two new houses already benefited from an outline planning consent for a pair of dormer windowed cottages (with all matters reserved, except scale and access).

Our client, local building contractor / developer, Steven Reed of Reed Contracts Ltd, gave us a brief to redesign the pair of new houses, staying within the confines of the consent, but in a more contemporary way.

The identical design is mirrored and the properties share the same road access.

The houses are constructed from highly insulated prefabricated timber frame panels with a through coloured render external finish.

The horizontal timber used for cladding and louvres is Western Cedar, with the roofs finished with natural Spanish slate.

Note: ‘through coloured’ means the render is self-coloured so that it doesn’t need painting.
