Conversion of a 1920’s Kent stable block into a new dwelling
Situated on a farm within green belt land and an area of outstanding natural beauty (AONB) in the North Downs, Kent, the structure once formed part of a cluster of agricultural buildings which served as a mare and foal stable block with associated hay barns. The stable block conversion features traditional brick and flint detailing whilst the adjoining extension has reclaimed timber cladding and a standing seam zinc roof. Internally the exposed solid oak roof beams and walls in polished plaster deliver warmth and character.
The oak beams are left exposed and the kitchen features a subtle mix of materials - reclaimed timber panels on the doors, and a formed zinc worktop.
The interiors are intentionally bare and raw - the walls are finished in exposed plaster and the floors with polished concrete tiles.
