Forest View Receives Planning Permission

20 February 2025

A carefully integrated extension

Planning permission has been granted for Forest View, a high-end residential extension in Oxfordshire developed to enhance both the functionality and experience of the existing home. 

Set within a richly wooded landscape, the design balances confident contemporary intervention with contextual sensitivity, shaping the architecture around topography, mature trees and long views across the site.

A refined relationship with the outdoors

The proposals introduce a subterranean garage and gym embedded within the natural fall of the land, including a glazed display space that creates a striking visual moment while maintaining connection to the surrounding woodland. 

Above, a new swimming pool and sheltered outdoor area for dining and entertaining extend the home into the landscape. Developed with a light-touch approach to protect tree coverage while maximising daylight and outlook, the scheme delivers a seamless, contemporary addition that strengthens both lifestyle and setting.
