Construction, adaptation and refurbishment works

 

Chudleigh Development of New Homes, Shop Conversion and Flats over

R Brewer Construction Ltd

This site is within the heart of the village of Chudleigh on the edge of Dartmoor. The development includes two and three bedroom homes, one bedroom flats and two shops. All work has been carried out in a way sympathetic to the local conservation area.

The interior of the dilapidated shop premises was skillfully adapted into two modern units with their facades complementing the local Georgian architecture. Over the shops we have built 3 modern and functional one bedroom flats, all conforming to the latest standard: Resistance to the passage of sound.

Tucked in behind the shops and flats is Hazel mews made up of newly constructed residential properties, with Hazel cottage, a detached cottage style property sitting in a partly walled garden, adding the finishing touches to this attractive development.
