Over the decades W G Carter Limited has built a great many individual new detached homes in local villages. They are all, as would be expected, of a high quality and practical, often innovative design.

Country Home

This house was a new build project designed to provide a substantial additional home in keeping with its surroundings on a family-owned country estate.

Eco Friendly Home

We have recently completed a new build project which was both very exciting and unusual from the start. An old stone bothy was demolished and the natural stone from the building and garden walling used in the construction of a striking new home on the same site. As well as sizeable accommodation, the eco friendly features of this unique property include

Solar panels to supplement the heating system

Photovoltaic panel for electricity (any surplus requirement is fed back into the national grid)

South facing elevation in glass with purpose-designed screening to provide shade from intense summer sun while maximising the benefits of winter sunshine

High levels of thermal and acoustic insulation

Use of natural materials throughout ­ limestone and slate flooring, beech and oak joinery, bamboo timber flooring, Mother of Pearl natural clay plaster to a feature curved wall in the conservatory

Village Home

This four-bedroomed property is one of a pair of family-oriented homes built in the early 90s in a popular Oxfordshire village.
