Woods View

Oak framed barn house with fixed glazing slate roof timber cladding

A lofty new country home in Hampshire with exposed green oak frame and full-height glazed walls to maximise natural daylight and views down to the river at the bottom of the garden.

The vaulted main living space has a bank of rooflights with central contemporary woodburning stove as a focal point. A cantilevered landing / bridge hovers over the sitting room.

Exposed stainless steel tie-rods and connections to the green oak frame removes the requirement for heavy oak tie-beams and emphasises the feeling of space in the central rooms.

An elegant, refined selection of internal finishes completes the project and provides a robust and carefully considered interior to the house.
