Richmond house sold

The Orangery, Richmond
The Orangery, Richmond, designed for County Gate Properties has recently sold. The asking price for the 5 bedroom detached house was £2.5 million. The project involved the substantial remodelling of a 1960 building, reinvigorating the layout and sprucing-up the interior and exterior. The house now has a much more dignified character and provides modern family accommodation.

An increasing number of one-off houses involve the retention of existing buildings as local planning authorities like the London Borough of Richmond respond to the issues of sustainability and conservation. We are able to bring our experience of working with historic buildings and conservation areas to these project so that the positive character of the old can be joined with contemporary design and meet the demands of modern family life.
