Forest Retreat

Contemporary eco-friendly build


The house has been thoughtfully designed to remain as hidden as possible from neighbouring properties, blending seamlessly into its woodland setting. Drawing inspiration from traditional local barns, Forest Retreat features a brick plinth and black-painted timber cladding, grounding the building in its rural context.



Green roofs and carefully selected materials further enhance the home’s ability to merge with its natural surroundings, creating a retreat that respects and reflects the beauty of the landscape.

Forest Retreat stands as a harmonious blend of modern design and sustainable living, offering a tranquil and environmentally conscious escape in the heart of Surrey’s countryside.
