Five-bedroom new build at Woodcote Green
A two-bed bungalow from the 1940s came down, and a modern five-bedroom family house went up in its place.
- Project
- Demolition and new build
- Location
- Woodcote Green
- Build time
- 30 weeks
- Size
- Five bedrooms, five en-suites
A good design with some hard parts
The design and budget were both solid, but the footings, the steel beam sizes and the roof structure all took some working out with the engineer. It's the kind of job where you earn your money before anything comes out of the ground.
What's in the new house
- Five bedrooms, each with an en-suite
- A family bathroom with jacuzzi bath, bidet and porcelain tiles
- Open-plan kitchen and dining area, utility room and cloakroom
- Two sets of aluminium bi-folding doors from the lounge to a large landscaped garden
- Underfloor heating, a 300-litre Megaflo system and a speaker system
The build took 30 weeks from demolition to handover.
