Description:
This riba award-winning single-storey long house was designed by the architect Simon Winstanley in 2009. It sits in 14 acres of private land in an outstanding rural position in Dalry, 20 miles north of Castle Douglas. The architectural design responds intuitively to the site, a natural concave of the hillside. Internal living space extends to over 2,060 sq ft across a lateral layout, optimising the spectacular westerly views over the river Ken valley and the Rhinns of Kells hills. With sustainability at the forefront of the architectural design, the house achieves a low-carbon rating, the highest thermal efficiency rating possible and two forms of renewable micro-generation. Electricity is generated by a private wind turbine and solar photovoltaic panels.
