Good progress on riverside build

Our project to build a new home on the bank of the River Deben at Waldringfield is going well. The substantial new home by Architect John Denny will offer commanding views over the river.

Work started at the beginning of the year with the demolition of the existing building. In order to keep the new building below a permitted height, we excavated to produce space for a basement garage.

We managed to obtain the last of an attractive but now rare Ibstock brick for the walls and chimneys and some beautifully toned clay tiles to create a distinctive roofscape. Heritage-grade rooflights were installed to provide natural light to the heart of the home.

The project will be completed by the Spring.
