Sustainable energy efficient conversion and extension in Ideford Devon

This project was a true sustainable build, using timbers from the surrounding woodland. The existing 300 year old mill was upgraded with 200mm EPS EWI system that was extended down into the ground and up into the roof over the wall plate to connect to the roof insulation.

The new extension incorporated an insulated raft foundation with Tom Foster’s hybrid wall construction.

Indicative Uvalue 0.14W/m2K. Roof construction is similar to walls with natural slate cover. Cold bridging was addressed by seamlessly connectivity throughout the build. Windows and doors were Russel Timber Tech, triple glazed eco contract range.

Design and drawn by Tom Foster.
