Vendors Comments - The house, constructed by the homeowner starting in February 2003 and completed by October 2005, stands on land once part of the "Green Acres" garden, acquired from local builder, John Knapp. The design was self-directed, with John handling the initial shell construction. From there, the homeowner managed subsequent trades directly, ensuring solid internal walls and beam-and-block flooring with underfloor heating on both ground floor and first floors. Each room boasts individual heating controls, including attic spaces with thermostatic radiator valves. A water softener maintains underfloor heating efficiency. Landscaping was a joint effort with a friend, while the oak-framed garage was sourced from Verdon Saw Mills. Craftsmanship shines in details like the American oak front door and the summer house, replacing a dilapidated thatched structure. Engineered oak flooring, with a 7mm veneer, adds both elegance and practicality, compatible with the underfloor heating system.
