Such was their desirability; they were all sold within a month of their completion in 2003.

  • Sunniside – which was a project of twelve self build houses, sold entirely off plan.
  • Horn Hall, Stanhope – This project consisted of six traditional high quality stone detached family homes with a tranquil river frontage.
  • The Leazes, Wolsingham – A unique high quality development of only twelve detached houses and apartments in a mature wooded 19th Century Estate.

    Its first build project was a Castle at Castle Eden. The scheme comprised the original medieval part of the Castle; from this listed part ruined building four individual bespoke homes of great character and quality were created.
