and we have lift off!

We’ve been teasing you with snippets of this over the past few months but our new build eco house is now onsite. Planning on keeping you posted as construction progresses with regular drone footage, so watch this space! And who doesn’t love an inversion……

a wee taster…..

A CGI taster of a recently completed project in the Borders. Stay tuned for the pics (and more?!) of the real deal……

before & after

Been having a mooch through the archives and came across this great wee ‘before & after’. Removing the existing conservatory allowed us to open things up to create a split-level, open plan kitchen/family space, and seamlessly connect to the patio and garden.

the perfect bbq spot

With temperatures due to soar here in Peebles at the weekend, we’re dreaming of how lovely it would be to enjoy it on this terrace, with views across the Tweed Valley. Where would you put the bbq? On the terrace or up on the balcony…..

eco, off-grid, low energy house

Look at that view – and the sun isn’t even shining! What an incredible location for a new off-grid, low-energy, eco house. With Planning permission recently granted, we hope to have the Building Warrant in place shortly to allow kick-off on site. We’ll be posting pictures as the work progresses, so watch this space!

Not the best picture to show off the newly installed glazed gable on this work-in-progress, but worth a look all the same. That first-floor room is going to be flooded with light every morning – once the sun comes back……

Making the most of the sea view….

Still early days, but we are very excited about the end results of the transformation of this simple bungalow in Padstow, Cornwall. With that view, we just had to take the whole rear wall out!…and this is possibly one of the tidiest sites we’ve ever experienced – thanks to https://bazeleyconstructionltd.com
