Benjamin Allen are soon to complete the construction of a new style of house close to the South Downs, East Sussex.
Designed and built by Benjamin Allen, it serves to demonstrate both how attractive and enhancing our homes are, and an example of how creative and intelligent design can be used too.
The house is based on a traditional design with an external facade which benefits from high quality timber sash windows, handmade York bricks and handmade clay peg tiles. The house showcases the Benjamin Allen specification incorporating full heat recovery and underfloor heating throughout.
The basement was constructed using waterproof in-situ concrete with the above structure being constructed with an energy efficient Benjamin Allen structural timber frame.
A glass link separates the two wings of the house so each area has its own unique identity. Traditional materials on the outside hide a contemporary open planned internal layout. The vaulted roofs are a feature of this design echoing the spacious feel throughout.
The house will provide prospective self-builders a chance to experience a Benjamin Allen home first hand.
The house is due to be completed at the end of this month. If you would like further information on the project, please contact our sales office on 01444 817657 or email info@benjamin-allen.co.uk and one of our team will be in contact with you.
