The refurbishment of Molland House in the middle of Molland Estate had a tight programme to design and build in only six months. The house, a beautiful Victorian shooting lodge with many period features, was completely refurbished including minor internal reordering to make best use of the space. Part of the linhay outbuilding was converted to provide two additional bedroom and bathrooms. The project also involved the upgrade of all internal services including new heating distribution using the Estate’s biomass boiler as well as improvements to the entrance courtyard to enhance the approach for visitors. An extension was built to house a games room with a vaulted ceiling, exposed trusses and high quality hardwood windows and glazed doors.
