The open plan design of the house means the space is easily heated via the efficient wood burning radiant heater (Nectre Baker's Oven). Double glazed windows give generous natural day light throughout as well as contributing to the fantastic acoustic properties which are inherent to strawbale buildings.

With several entertaining areas around the home, opportunities abound for entertaining, sunset watching, star gazing or just relaxing and taking in the broader natural landscape. Whatever you are doing around this magnificent property you'll find it hard to escape how snug and homely it feels. The design is practically urban on the outside whilst its modern interior is also sheltering with humility.
