Thomas and Sally Beevor gave a simple brief to Neil Winder of StudioMGM Architects. They wanted a new house to retire to. It needed to have a downstairs master bedroom, should accommodate their interests and most importantly must use as much timber as possible from the estate sawmill.
Neil has designed them a traditionally styled eco-cottage that is constructed from and clad in timber. The design mixes the old and the new creating a home that is beautiful and sympathetic to its surroundings.
