hurst house, aj buildings library
DESCRIPTION
The site forms part of a garden of a substantial house located on the edge of Bourne End in Buckinghamshire, directly fronting an area of open fields that form part of the Chilterns Area of Outstanding National Beauty. The design provides a masonry base in an ‘L’ shaped configuration, set partially into the ground so that the house has a low profile when viewed from the AONB. An entrance hall has a bathroom and large storage room to one side, while to the other side a study faces west and forms part of a wing arranged east–west, with three south facing bedrooms looking onto the garden, with their glazed facades set back beneath a grass covered roof structure.TRANSCRIPT
