A wooded river valley provides an exquisite setting for this exceptional classical house.
While literate in the classical vocabulary, the house has design elements of the present day, such as a copper roof with glass slopes that create an atrium over a central hall, and glass walls behind stone columns.
The modern ingredients also include sustainable features such as a ground-sourced heat pump as a primary heat generator, and heat recovery from ground pipes beneath a private road.
