A few images to show what the house will look like when built




White rendered walls, natural slate roof, rectangular in shape and gable ended  In summary; a traditional Scottish longhouse with contemporary features.

Heating for the house will be provided by a log-burning stove in the open-plan living room / dining room / kitchen. An air source heat pump will provide hot water and backup heating via a couple of radiators (one downstairs, one upstairs). No other heating requirement anticipated due to high levels of insulation and air-tight construction. A Mechanical Ventilation Heat Recovery system will provide fresh air and distribute heat around the house.
