Many of the classical rural views painted by celebrated artist John Constable, can still be seen today.

INSPIRED BY THE PAST.
BUILT FOR THE FUTURE
Q. What was the architectural thinking behind the design of the Painters Place?
The design approach of 10 ‘almshouse’ style dwellings set around a central courtyard reflects a traditional approach. Detailing, such as the steeply pitched roofs, handmade clay tiles, decorative faux chimneys and bell tower, ornamental club tiles provide a highly pleasant, visually interesting roof form derived from distinctive architectural detailing.
Q. How will the design reflect the local area?
These homes have been designed to take inspiration from the traditional Suffolk architecture and complement the local area. The homes will be constructed from a traditional range of materials with intricate design detailing. These materials include Anglian Stock bricks laid in Flemish bond, handmade clay tiles, decorative clay finial ridge tiles, white timber windows, doors, stone detailing, and decorative finishes as well as cast aluminium heritage rainwater goods.
Other traditional features include crafted joinery eaves, decorative barge boards, facias, voussoir heads, sprocket detailing at eaves and entrance canopies. The resulting appearance is of a high-quality design.
Q. Do homeowners have their own private, outside space?
Each home benefits from private gardens, predominantly laid to lawn with Indian sandstone terraces and a sizable timber framed garden store. The rear boundaries are marked by woven, willow panel fencing with hardwood garden gates.
Each home will come with two parking bays and access to the communal bin and cycle store.
Q. What are the communal areas like?
A communal area of rest and reflection, to the rear of the site is accessed via a resin bound walkway with sensor lights. Overall, it will be left undisturbed with the inclusion of some wildflower planting and enhanced boundary planting.
The frontage of the development is expertly landscaped with park style railings erected along the Hadleigh Road with supplemental landscaping. In addition, piers either side of the entrance help enhance the sense of arrival, along with the grand resin bound driveway and parking court.The central courtyard is defined by flush granite setts with a bound gravel surface.
"In the architecture of our homes at Painters Place we have considered that the use of high-quality design and materials is integral to the acceptability of these homes within this historic village and the wider Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, adjacent to the conservation area and close to heritage assets.
Whilst externally the homes present a more traditional feel, internally they are distinctly modern; designed and finished to fit 21st century life, with a focus on flexibility, sustainability and ease."
BEAUTIFULLY PLACED
Impeccably designed inside and out, these exclusive new homes offer elegant living within a superior setting.
This charming collection of new homes benefits from extensive landscaped communal areas as well as existing mature trees and hedgerows, providing an attractive, established setting.
The traditionally influenced façades and thoughtfully planned interiors, coupled with a sophisticated specification and beautiful finishes, ensure these character homes will impress time and time again.

DOWNSIZE OR NOT TO DOWNSIZE,
THAT IS THE QUESTION!
DOWNSIZE OR NOT TO DOWNSIZE, THAT IS THE QUESTION!
Reasons for deciding to downsize vary, but very often it's motivated by a desire for a more manageable, easily maintained property in a convenient location. Many buyers simply want somewhere that’s easier to look after because they don’t want to be tied to a larger house in later life. Others may be looking for somewhere smaller because their children have flown the nest and they no longer need the space, or they want to free up some capital to supplement their pension during retirement or help a family member to get a foot on the housing ladder.
Easy to look after, energy efficient, with no onward chain and often located in convenient well-connected areas – new build homes are an attractive option for many buyers looking to downsize.
For William and Patricia, the reason for downsizing to East Bergholt, and particularly Painters Place, was a desire to start living again. Having spent most of their life in the busy commuter belt of South Essex, the appeal for a more manageable home and a well-connected, tranquil environment was a huge influence on their decision.
"Moving to a smaller property and to a new area wasn’t a simple decision but having family close at hand made the move that much easier for us. Also knowing that almost everything we could need was just a short walk away and in such a beautiful location was a huge positive for us,” says Patricia. "As location was high on our wish-list”.

We only work with high-quality brands, from sleek, designer kitchens to cool, contemporary bathrooms, right down to the fine details of tiles and taps.
