What started life as an elevated single storey bungalow was completely transformed into an elegant multiple level executive retreat. Neil undertook the complete design and management of this superior quality project with meticulous attention to detail, including intricate tiling patterns, pressed metalwork and the use of numerous period stained glass windows.
