This small development, on a steeply sloping site with far-ranging views, provides new multi-level living in 9 new family homes.

Situated in Knaresborough, the site slopes down to the water, providing the opportunity for an innovative approach to modern living. Inverting the traditional arrangement and situating the living accommodation on the upper levels provides the opportunity for long range views, enhances daylight and an arrival sequence starting with the more public spaces and descending to the more private.

Where the homes sit nestled in to the hillside, we located bathroooms, ancillary space and even home cinemas / gyms, with all habitable accommodation facing south over the green space beyond. All of the four levels are served by some form of outdoor space such as a garden, balcony or terrace.
