The Barn Garden is a collection of five carefully crafted brand new homes located in a semi-rural position in the Somerset village of Great Elm. Whilst being contemporary in style, the heritage of the area is subtly reflected in the design of each home with judicious use of natural materials such as the treated natural wood cladding and profiled metal sheeting. Large windows draw the eye to the panoramic views across towards the Mendip Hills whilst strong eco credentials ensure all homes are easy and efficient to run. The mixed aesthetic employed through The Barn Garden ensures a sense of cohesive individuality with elements of asymmetry, Dutch Barn influences and double gabled roofs.

Sustainability has been at the forefront for The Barn Garden with sensitive and minimal disruption to flora and fauna. Extensive measures have been taken to minimise the impact of the development on the natural environment such as reduced carbon emissions, more of which are detailed within the linked brochure.

A detailed specification is included within the linked brochure however highlights include Air Source Heating, which amongst other measures has [with one exception] resulted in an EPC rating of A.
