Category: New, Eco, Design & Build

About the Hamacre project

This project involved the demolition of an outdated bungalow to make way for a contemporary replacement dwelling that seamlessly blends modern design with exceptional eco-credentials. Featuring an asymmetric pitched slate roof, the property’s striking architecture is further enhanced by full-height glazing on the principal elevation, allowing natural light to flood the interior. 

Designed with sustainability and energy efficiency in mind, the home is heated via an advanced air source heat pump and underfloor heating system, achieving outstanding air tightness and high thermal performance. Inside, the spacious three-bedroom layout boasts luxurious touches, including a bespoke kitchen, elegant marble flooring, and oak trims that add warmth and sophistication throughout. This carefully crafted home exemplifies the perfect balance of style, comfort, and sustainability.

Client Testimonials

“We enjoyed the whole process from the initial planning with Paul and Ruta from NDM Architects to the carefully thought-through final finishing touches completed by Rob, John and their teams. Every member of NBC was friendly and approachable and we built up great relationships with them all – many we count as friends now. Carl and Tom oversaw the whole process with consideration and care and we would happily do the whole thing again with the same team!”

Julia & Mark - Highmead

“In 2015 we decided to demolish our bungalow and replace it with a large contemporary house. From our first meeting until the completion of the project, Carl and his team provided a fantastic service giving us excellent and very positive advice, which resulted in a high-quality end product completed on time. We have no hesitation at all in warmly recommending and endorsing NBC.”

Fraser & Prue

“So glad we partnered with NBC for our new build. We found them to be a highly professional, responsive team, and they used highly skilled craftsmen throughout.  Whenever there were build challenges, they quickly developed options and recommendations for us to consider.”

Al & Sarah - Wild Swans

“Without exception, I couldn’t have asked for a nicer, more conscientious, friendly and talented group of builders. I was opposite the site for the duration, having built in my garden, so there was no escape. The stonemasons’ work is commented on by all who visit and they even included stone from my garden, knowing how important it was to me that the new building belonged. The Carpenters not only achieved an amazing feat building the solid oak frame on site from scratch but added many wonderful additions to enhance the uniqueness and timeless sense of the build.”
