BUILDER


on the steps highlight the staircases intricate details, Laura exclaims that they “love how this turned out!”


The upstairs is designed to cater to the couples needs featuring an office a master bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite, a second ensuite bedroom, a standalone bedroom, and a main bathroom. Laura explains, The office room doubles as a potential bedroom in the future, but for now, it serves as our dedicated workspace.” Laura elaborates further, stating, “Our main goal for the upstairs was to create a generous master bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite, as well as a second ensuite bedroom.” A notable practical feature is the laundry chute accessible from both the master ensuite and the hallway, providing convenient access to the utility downstairs. Laura enthuses, “Adding this was one of the best decisions we made. We remember watching Home Alone and seeing it! So we made this fantasy a reality.” Reecting on the oerall interior Laura describes it as both functional and stylish, with a focus on clean lines and a relatively minimalist finish. She adds We aimed for timeless neutral tones complemented by warm, feature tones to make it feel homely.”

Sustainability may not have been their primary focus during the design process, but the home is filled with eco-friendly aspects which add to the houses energy performance. Some of these include triple glazed windows, high-grade insulation and energy-efficient appliances. When it comes to heating their home, the couple opted for air to water underoor heating. We felt that this was the most efficient way to heat our home in the long run and we love that we can keep a consistent temperature in our home 24/7,” explains Una. Additionally, they implemented a Mechanical Ventilation with eat Recoery R system to ensure good ventilation with a continuous supply of fresh filtered air. ll of these aspects combined resulted in Una and Laura achieving an A-rated EPC for their home.


Reecting on their completed build Laura and Una express how thrilled they are with the end result. “We feel that it really brought our dream to life, and it works really well day-to-day. We love our kitchen/dining/living room space in particular as this is the heart of our home!” Learn more about na and Lauras self-build
