'A Modern Masterpiece' Designed and Built by Oakenstone

We completed construction on this superb new build home, described as ‘a modern masterpiece’, last year. And as planned, it has now come on to the market.

Here we showcase the quality and wow factor of this exceptional home as well as the values Oakenstone bring to our work.

Watch the estate agent’s excellent promotional video below, and read how the entire Oakenstone team, including Architect Richard Bradbury, Chief Designer Dave Mowle and of course our exceptional Construction and Joinery team were central to the conception and delivery of this stunning home, in this Case Study.

Why Choose Oakenstone?

James and Dave discuss why you should consider OakenStone for your next building project

meet Our Design Team

Richard Bradbury

Architect
Richard formally joined Oakenstone in 2018, after twenty years working with Dave and James as an architectural consultant. Combining the strengths of his architectural practice with Oakenstone’s design-led construction and management process has added a powerful extra dimension to Oakenstone’s work. With the benefit of Richard’s 30 years’ experience as an architect, and with full RIBA backing, Oakenstone is able to manage larger, more complex projects from inception to completion.

Dave Mowle

Director - Designer and Operations Manager
As OakenStone’s lead designer and value engineer, Dave assesses each new project and advises on design options. Dave is a genuinely creative thinker who really understands buildings so he can offer solutions you may not have even considered, change the way you think about space, and help you identify your priorities. With over 25 years’ experience delivering major build projects, his expertise and oversight ensure smooth progress throughout the design and build phases.

James Probert

Director - Head of Technical Design
James’ passion is to create homes that are wonderful to live in, because they function well and 'gladden the heart'. He is obsessed with intelligent design, and creating spaces that enhance the original both functionally and aesthetically. He studies the proposed build and plans all the technical components, but in such a way that they operate in the background, silently enriching the human experience of the space.

What stands apart with Oakenstone is the level of clear communication about the details as well as the overall plan and the creative solutions to some problems

We were very pleased with the quality of work supplied with excellent craftsmanship. We were involved throughout with the planning and costing of the project and were delighted when we came home from holiday to find our new kitchen in place.

I would also, without hesitation, recommend OakenStone to anyone else.

client Testimonial

See Victoria discuss the positive experience of building her new home with OakenStone

OakenStone came up with an innovative design for our house, after much discussion with me and my husband. As the build developed, new ideas and options occurred to us both and OakenStone, and these were incorporated seamlessly, after having given us an estimate on any cost/budget implications. OakenStone kept in touch with us and involved us, and advised us on all the small decisions that were inevitable in such a major alteration to our home e.g. switch and socket locations etc. Overall we have a house that is far better than we could ever have imagined.
