"FILM STARS" MOVE INTO THEIR NEW HOME...

Having agreed to their self-build journey being filmed for TV, our customers have now moved into their Dream Home. Starting on Thursday 19th November, you can share their journey with them, from the possibility of newts in their garden requiring the heavy involvement of Surrey Wildlife, resulting in Planning Permission being granted on Christmas Eve (a welcome Christmas present) through to them taking occupancy of their beautiful new home this month.

They started with a standard Chiddingstone design and made various changes to suit their way of life - modern family living with large open spaces. The family's love of music sees them play in a popular local band and they like to entertain at home.

The result is a 5 bedroom, 4 bathroom chalet with the dowstairs having a kitchen/dining room which opens through to the garden.

As a thank you for letting them film, the Television Production Company have arranged for the family to holiday in Norway.

Project Manager, Gavin Pearson added: "If you too would like your build project show-cased, call me on 01342 838093."
