Environmental credentials
This energy efficient property achieved Code For Sustainable Homes Level 4 due to its high levels of insulation, high quality doors and windows, solar panels, and a super efficient boiler. The house was decorated using low VOC paints.
On the site of a former 1930’s bungalow, Cave applied for planning permission for a new two storey property with a habitable roof space. The plan had a slightly larger footprint than the original building, whilst retaining the existing mature garden and front driveway. Even though it had become too small for their growing family, our clients loved their old bungalow, so one of the key features of the brief was to design a house that looked modern, but kept the character of the previous property. The windows were designed to reflect the traditional style of the previous bungalow, but were simplified to let in more light and have a slightly more contemporary feel. In addition to this, through careful reclaiming and re-using, parts of the old bungalow still live on in this stylish, light, and efficient family home.
