Devon, UK
We refreshed a Devon long house to showcase a blend of tradition and luxury. Renovations included creating an open-plan living area, a new kitchen, new bathrooms and bedrooms, and the revival of external barns for additional living space. A dedicated yoga room and a stunning 20-meter pool. Expert landscaping complements the property..

Featured Projects
We can tackle any residential building project.
A new built orangery linking the main house with the annexe wing to form a rear entrance hall and boot room. The 1000sq ft room has a lead roof, underfloor heating, basement and glazed screen with French windows opening onto the garden. We also renovated the atrium, oculus and windows of the main house.
This Arts and Crafts house had been poorly renovated in the 1980s. We added a modern steel and glass extension creating a lower ground floor with bedrooms, cinema and utility; a large light kitchen/living room with fully opening glass wall overlooking the harbour on the ground floor and a first-floor balcony and roof terrace. The remainder of the house was stripped, reconfigured and brought up to the highest spec.
The architect was asked to maximise the light and space in this 1970’s new build. We removed the face of the building over three floors, cantilevered the first and second floors out over the ground floor, replacing all the rear ground floor walls with fully opening glass doors. We renovated the remainder of the house and built extensions on both sides.
Historic Brownshill Court near Painswick was close to ruin. West Country Renovations stepped in to meticulously restore the 18th-century estate, using matching materials and preserving architectural details. The south wing is complete, with full restoration expected by year-end. This project breathes new life into a Cotswold gem.
