Our scheme for a highly contemporary new build house in the Harestock area of Winchester has been granted planning permission at committee, with unanimous approval. The predominantly single storey courtyard house, is L-shaped in plan enclosing a walled garden. Car parking is tucked beneath an integrated car port with only the master suite set at first floor, behind a perforated metal screen. The overall design and aesthetic is very simple and discrete with just two contrasting external materials – pale brick and dark zinc.
