We are often asked ‘will I get an uplift in value on resale if I spend more building an oak frame?’ This compact 4 bedroom house went on the market and sold for over 1.5 million, indicating that oak frames can bring a high level of saleability to what might otherwise be a rather ordinary dwelling. Note the use of sawn oak cladding for the external elevations. Well executed, the life of such cladding can easily exceed 100 years.
Beamed ceilings give make for a beautiful farmhouse style kitchen. The ‘unfitted’ island unit and Aga add to the homeliness making a great family gathering space.
The spacious and elegant kitchen is open plan to the entrance hall and dining area and has long views through to the lounge beyond. Having a conservatory style glazed area makes for a well lit interior.
Over the stairwell the rafters have been supplied in oak and glazed with a ‘Vitral’ patent glazing system to bring light into the hall and landing. Note the whole panel of each roof light is openable.
Oak frame drawings are available for this and many other of our schemes. If you are interested in building something similar talk to us, we are here to help and your initial meeting is free from obligation or expense.
“"Seems a long time since we finished with the garden room project but we have to say that it has been a huge success in every aspect. The room has become the place of choice for visitors. I can guarantee that everyone, yes everyone who visits, is blown away by the frame."
