Three Oaks - East Sussex
The owner was living in a timber-framed house built in the 1930's and wanted more space to accommodate a growing family. No mortgage funding was available to extend the current home as the structure was deemed to be at the end of its useful life. The owner was left with no choice but to demolish the existing property and build a new home.
