The Grove, Executive House, Creigiau
A stylish development of 4 four bedroom detached homes in the rural village of Creigiau just on the outskirts of Cardiff.
The village enjoys excellent amenities including Creigiau Golf Club, sports club and public house. Creigiau also boasts a Welsh Reform Primary School and is within the catchment are for Radyr Comprehensive School.
These executive homes have traditional foundations with a timber frame structure, the high specification includes underfloor heating to the ground floor, quality kitchens with fitted appliances, hardwood flooring to hallway and dining area, ceramic tiles to kitchens and bathrooms and fitted wardrobes to Master and second bedrooms. Double garages with electrically operated door and landscaping to front gardens.
Modern Methods of Construction:
Offsite timber frame construction allowed the homes to be built faster and to a higher sustainability standard compared with traditional construction methods, making them more cost-effective to build and live in. The factory-manufactured timber frame acts as a means of structural support, carrying the loads imposed by the floors and roofs, before transmitting them to the foundations.
