A collaborative approach results in Best Oak Frame Home award

Located in the heart of the Dartmoor National Park and set within 60 acres of woodland and meadow, this 18th Century granite farmhouse and associated barns group loosely together to form West Yard Farm. The clients’ brief was to turn the dilapidated farmhouse and barns into a large, modern family home with annex space for various flexible use.

Tactile and aesthetic properties of green oak are utilised in a contemporary manner.

The clients chose van Ellen + Sheryn architects for the overall design of the house, who approached Carpenter Oak for the oak frame aspect, with builder Richard Goulden from Goulden & Sons finishing the property to the highest specifications.
