• Location: Lymm, Cheshire
• Status: planning granted

Nestled in the picturesque heart of Lymm, Glanafon is a contemporary private riverside home offering a harmonious blend of modern design and historic character. Situated along the serene Lower Dam, this project respects the character of Lymm's historic centre with an architectural approach that carefully balances simple modern aesthetics with sensitivity to the existing context, ensuring that the development enhances, rather than detracts from, the charm of its location

This home is designed to maximise its unique location, with expansive glazing that frames the lush greenery and views of the water whilst allowing privacy from the village’s visitors, creating a living experience that feels intertwined with nature. In addition, the design has been future-proofed to accommodate the needs of older residents, with provisions made for the installation of a lift. Externally, the handmade Old English Grey tinged brickwork complements the natural environment, ensuring the development integrates seamlessly into its picturesque surroundings.
