The White House, Wellsborough

Small Residential Scheme of the Year Award 2017 Finalist

Set in seven acres, The White House has benefitted from a complete redesign of its internal layout, with great attention to detail in the choice of materials.

Structural work has achieved spacious rooms – and there is even roosting space in the loft for the brown eared bats that had colonised the old building’s roof space.

In the grounds, a new drainage scheme was created to divert all storm water to a large pond that is home to moorhens, mallards and carp.

The landscaping features natural materials such as slate, oak sleepers and brick walls. A ha ha between the garden and paddock was revealed and restored.
