Manley, Cheshire: creating a beautiful, converted barn-style new build property
The brief
Private clients were looking to build a new home, along with a garage, which could double up as a home office outbuilding, in Manley, near Frodsham in Cheshire.
NWD’s approach
One of our experienced RIBA registered architects at NWD Architects, Heather Done, worked closely with the client to design the house and take the project from original concept through to completion. As the couple were looking to build on greenbelt land, there were strict restrictions on the maximum floor area and height of the build, as well as requirements for the aesthetic of the building needing to stay true to the area’s rural character.
The outcome
Heather Done provided detailed drawings that incorporated a thoughtful layout that maximised the potential of the floor area available, as well as creating a beautiful, converted barn-style property, with vaulted ceilings to increase the feeling of space.
