The Old Timberyard

The UK’s first Passivhaus conversion of a commercial building to a family house, this spacious family home pushes the boundaries of converting old building stock. Utilising RDA’s former office, previously an old workshop, this project will give the building its third lease of life by adding a basement, front extension, and new barrel-vaulted roof. All of this has been done to achieve EnerPHit certification; high levels of insulation, airtight construction, an MVHR system, quality workmanship, and a focus on thermal bridging have elevated this innovative retrofit to the highest quality.
