Eye-catching images reveal stunning ‘hidden house in the woods’ in Temple Ewell, Dover

Eye-catching images reveal how a stunning “hidden house” set to be built within peaceful woodland in Kent will look.

Plans have been approved by Dover District Council (DDC) to construct the “secluded and harmonious” home in the village of Temple Ewell, near Dover.

Architect Jonathan Burlow has unveiled stunning CGI visuals of the sleek, modern home featuring expansive glass windows that flood the interior with natural light.

The design showcases a striking wooden exterior with a fresh, contemporary finish, supported by elevated concrete beams that give the house a distinctive, elevated look.

Mr Burlow has ensured that the site has been carefully considered to have a “minimal environmental impact”.

The 160 sqm home is set on a picturesque acre of sloping woodland, previously used for greenhouses on a private allotment.

Featured in the prestigious Architect’s Journal, the design harmonizes with its natural surroundings.

Mr Burlow highlighted that the concrete lower level of the home will be “subtly embedded” into the hillside.

Mr Burlow, of Jonathan Burlow Architects in Folkestone, said: “The concept for the house came from a desire to blend contemporary architecture with the natural environment, creating a home that feels both secluded and harmonious with the surrounding woodland.

“Some of the core concept was to have a house really of two atmospheres, one being ‘found space’, the idea of excavating into the landscape to form more private sleeping accommodation.

“Whilst the cantilevered upper volume is mostly made up from wood to give a sense of being amongst the trees – all of which have been carefully considered to make the most of the natural setting while ensuring sustainability and minimal environmental impact are key drivers.”

After plans were approved by DDC, Mr Burlow confirmed that work is set to start on the site in November.

Construction will take around a year to complete.

KentOnline requested to speak with the owner of the property but they wished to remain “private”.
