Formerly the orchard area to the rear garden to 65 Pettitts Lane, this pretty 0.8 acre parcel of land set just outside the green belt provided the opportunity to design a modern scheme comprising 10 new family homes, situated in a small and attractive village about 3 miles west of the Cambridge city boundary with easy access to the city centre.

To design and build a sustainable and modern cluster of 10 homes accessed via Pettitts Close. A joint venture with reputed builders Dean and Dean brought the vision of city styling and architecture to the countryside proving modernist features are not only to be found in urban developments.

To produce a scheme which created individual character in a green and open setting. To retain and maintain prominent existing landscape features, particularly the existing trees and hedgerows, and to utilise a material palette of highly sustainable and natural materials

Thoughtfully designed, each property reflected the changing world and featured ground floor offices for a convenient work from home environment.

Roof windows to the lower roof level provides a nice light environment within the reception rooms and sedum roofs enhance the site biodiversity.
