Cider House

Located on the outskirts of a sleepy Yorkshire village, renowned for its Benedictine Monastery and cider production, this project introduces a thoughtfully designed new farmstead.

The scheme includes:

• A new house.

• A barn and stables.

• A home office.

• Fields for apple cultivation, supporting local cider production.

Set in a picturesque North Yorkshire valley, the project takes advantage of a south-facing slope. Its construction emphasizes timber as a primary material, with external features including:

• Green roofs, blending into the natural surroundings.

• Blackened timber cladding, reflecting the region’s rural vernacular.

The scheme achieved Planning Consent through NPPF Paragraph 79 and is currently moving towards a start on site.

As a zero-carbon project, it incorporates:

• Innovative technologies.

• Advanced ventilation systems.

This project represents a fusion of tradition and modern sustainability, creating a self-sufficient rural retreat.
