The Glass House

Our Clients house plot had on it a narrow, single storey former veterinary surgery, lying vacant. Looking for a more modern house, they commissioned us to see how best to work with the adjacent plot and provide a modern, 3 bedroom house, in place of the old veterinary surgery ‘shed’.

A surprisingly easy journey was had through the Planning system, and the Clients stuck with the concept throughout. To minimise footprint and maximise floor area, single skin SIPS panel construction was used, with a combination of smooth render to ground floor walls and Euroclad cladding sheets used on first floor walls and the roof. Bold fully glazed gables light a double volume space over the
kitchen, and the lounge and first floor bedroom to the rear.

Attention to detail, with patient and enthusiastic contractors ensured a striking addition to the row of houses fronting the golf course.

This project was recently awarded the Montrose Society ‘Design Excellence Award’ 2012.
