We have enjoyed working on a large number of bespoke new build properties across the county this year. Here are a sample of some of the schemes that we’ve designed. We look forward to them starting on site in 2021.

Benar Headland Development
New commission underway at Benar Headland, ‘Sandbanks of the North’, a peninsula consisting of a handful of luxury ‘statement’ houses. Set in to the cliffs occupying a wonderful elevated site with panoramic views over St Tudwals Islands across Cardigan Bay, the site has its own private access to the beach directly below the property. We are excited to be working on such a great location for an existing private client where few opportunities arise for developers in this highly exclusive coastal spot
New Build Scheme Submitted, Works progress on Large Country Properties and Cotebrook Dwelling completes
Above, a scheme for three new dwellings has been submitted that will replace an equestrian facility and situated adjacent to three listed buildings. Designed in a contemporary barn style to present a neutral design against the listed building setting and contextually fit within the Green Belt.
We are working on a variety of Country properties that will see their refurbishment. Above, top, is Allostock Hall which is a 17th Century Grade 2 listed property. The works will see a complete remodel and extension that will restore this beautiful Georgian Manor . As part of the development, there is a new substantial Equestrian facility within the grounds that will accommodate an indoor Olympic ménage for the client to train for her hopeful entry at the Paris 2024 Olympics




Another dwelling completed, solving a variety of planning hurdles blending contemporary and traditional design.

Planning permission has been granted for a barn conversion (image above) in Prestbury. The property will provide 4,500sqft of contemporary living accommodation with oak framed extension, a substantial detached outbuilding for home office and gymnasium and potentially a pool, offered with substantive gardens and land as well as a private driveway leading to its position on an elevated site overlooking Macclesfield Road
Phase 2 of a farm development project consisting of 5 new dwellings is underway near Oulton Park (images below). The development will provide a mix of 2-5 bed units with a central landscaped courtyard.
Planning permission passed for 5 houses in Marthall (site plan below). Faced with various challenges, we managed to secure a great consent for our client that will provide a mix of house types as well as outbuildings
A planning application has been submitted to convert a steel frame shed in to a wedding barn at the Hayloft in Great Sankey (image below). We obtained the original planning permission for the conversion of the existing barns to a cafe/restaurant and events room. Having proved an extremely popular location our clients have re-appointed us to seek consent for a contemporary purpose made wedding venue
4 New Luxury Houses underway in Goostrey
PDQ Barn to Commence

The properties range from size up to 7,000sqft and are specifically designed to adapt to their sensitive rural landscape settings within the Cheshire Green Belt. Many of the discerning features of our properties incorporate substantive use of oak framing, high quality hand brick and natural stone
