Sympathetic renovation and restoration of a traditional Cotswold cottage

designed to blend modern functionality with timeless charm while preserving the character and heritage of the property.

Key aspects include:

Structural Enhancements: The use of traditional techniques like needling for structural integrity during modifications, and lime mortar repointing to ensure the building remains breathable and damp-free.
Authentic Features: Exposing original Cotswold stone walls, enhancing their natural beauty, and incorporating bespoke design elements like an elegant arched doorway and new window openings with hand-crafted stone lintels.
Modern Functionality: Adding practical features such as an ensuite bathroom with double-height ceilings and exposed beams, and undertaking essential roof repairs like lead valley restoration to maintain weatherproofing.
Balanced Design Aesthetic: Carefully combining traditional Cotswold architecture with updated interiors that respect the cottage’s heritage while accommodating modern living needs.
This project reflects a deep appreciation for heritage conservation, with a focus on quality craftsmanship, authentic materials, and thoughtful design to bring a new lease of life to a period property.
