Woods End Norfolk

Beside a meandering stream in a lovely wooded setting, Woods End is a stunning contemporary country residence and possibly one of the most exciting new homes to have been created in recent years.

Set in approximately two acres (tbv) of landscaped,wooded grounds,the house has been designed by award winning architects Roderick James to be in close harmony with the surrounding landscape, environmental concerns being a major consideration.

Traditional building techniques have been employed using contemporary methods resulting in a marvelous fusion of style, tradition and aesthetics. Architecturally, part of the brief was to take full advantage of the marvelous Norfolk light and ensure the accommodation became a light filled, welcoming space. Therefore the notion of curved roof lines, organic materials and open plan living were conceived and married together with twenty first century requirements to form a property capable of adopting many personalities in order to reflect the lifestyle of those who live within this space.

Majestic Douglas Firs grown and supplied from a sustainable UK source at Longleat, have been crafted to form the frame, whilst the whole building has been wrapped in Redwood Cedar with dipped hardwood window frames from Sweden, carefully positioned and sized to maximise views of the garden and beyond.

Ingeniously these have all been brought together under gently curving roofs topped with flowering sedum, providing a delightful display of white and pink flowers during the summer. This traditional way of construction has been combined with modern day technology which allows for discreet yet thoroughly efficient thermal and sound insulation together with windows which cut out harmful ultra violet rays whilst ensuring against heat loss.

The house has been designed to 'breathe'
