Another trip back to the Oxfordshire countryside to bring back breathability to this old farmhouse with the modern comforts of underfloor heating.

Passive house (Passivhaus) barn conversion. Beautiful self build project near Fakenham

Posted on 18/05/202008/06/2020 by Sarah Woodger

Last week we installed approx. 160m² of well insulated limecrete flooring to this amazing self-build barn conversion. The owners will be achieving passive house standards with their project and it was an honour to be a part of it.

The walls are straw panels from Ecococon and the amazing insulating external lime plaster, which is sand free, was developed by Martin at Best of Lime. Plaster was applied by a local family firm; Maltby Plastering.

The architect for the project, Straw Works have also provided a write up about the project. Barbara Jones is a natural building guru!
