Bigbury Hollow is an extremely peaceful location around two miles from Canterbury and planning permission has been granted here for a unique architect-designed ‘sheltered house'. Conceived to take full advantage of the hillside site without interfering with the natural landscape, the design allows for maximum light and complete integration for the house with its surroundings.
The architect has already deisgned several successful properties and been shortlisted for both a RIBA award and a Grand Designs award.
