Swan’s Nest

Private Residential

Seventeenth Century meets contemporary modern via the planning inspectorate; this is the classic battleground between Listed Building Officer and client ambition. A series of stunning Cotswold stone buildings set into a sloping site have been unobtrusively adjoined with glazed links to create one coherent whole. The result is a characterful home which clearly distinguishes the old from the new; cosy historical spaces contrast with contemporary volume and light.
