5 bed detached house

The Crescent House is a modern country residence situated on the outskirts of Compton Bassett, in the foothills of the Marlborough Downs, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in Wiltshire. The property features two contrasting crescent shapes, one solid and containing private rooms, and the other entirely glazed with the Garden Room, a single volume where cooking, dining, and living flow together. The house is crafted from white finished concrete and glass, with a curved gallery acting as the home's spine and a monumental fireplace at its heart. The landscape is simple yet refined, with a palette of meadowland, pond, native trees, and seasonal bulbs, featuring a circle of maple trees encasing a wildflower hay meadow and a straight woodland avenue. The property is designed with strong environmental sensitivity, featuring high thermal mass, excellent insulation, and maximizing daylight and natural cross ventilation.
