Duffryn Oaks is a unique new development combining the best of Welsh traditional character houses and cottages with up-to-date design and facilities to create warm, light and comfortable, contemporary homes that should prove to be a modern classic.

Historic

Bluebell woodland setting These individual homes have been set amongst the mature trees and bluebell woodland surrounding historic 16th century Duffryn farmhouse and barn.

Traditional cottage feel blended with 21st century specifications it feels like a traditional village. Every house is individual and in each one you'll find something of character. This has been matched with features such as large windows, high standards of insulation and high efficiency heating systems with consequent low fuel bills, high quality kitchens and bathrooms, and built in flexibility.

Modern

Every home at Duffryn Oaks has been designed and built to offer modern living at its easiest and most enjoyable. Each one has been carefully positioned to maximise sunlight with large windows on southern and western elevations to create a bright, airy and spacious feeling.

Designed by Chris Loyn

Duffryn Oaks is being designed by Chris Loyn, one of Wales' leading architects. You will, perhaps, have seen him making regular television appearance on the BAFTA award winning series 'Hot Houses.' His architectural practice, Loyn and Co, has won many design awards including a short list for the coveted Sterling Prize, Welsh Housing Awards, Civic Trust awards and a Royal Institute of British Architects Award.

At Duffryn Oaks, Chris wants to create something unique - to blend together the best of traditional Welsh architecture and style with modern requirements for warm sunny rooms, large south facing windows, and high standards of comfort - and do it in a way that creates a 'wow' factor for every house,
