Contemporary Elegance in a Historic Village

It’s not every day that two of our bespoke MRT Architects homes come up for sale in the same picturesque village (see previous post). Over the years, we’ve had the privilege of shaping Alveston, Warwickshire, with more than four stunning new residences, a beautifully renovated village hall, and even an elegant extension to a Georgian cottage.

One standout creation is The White House – a striking multi-gabled design that exudes contemporary sophistication. Its two wings frame a dramatic galleried landing and a sweeping staircase set beneath a sunlit atrium. Inside, the open-plan layout flows effortlessly, complemented by chic furnishings and high-end finishes.

Nestled in a quiet lane within the conservation area, this modern masterpiece blends seamlessly with the charm of the traditional English village, offering the perfect balance of heritage and innovation.

Glass Walls and River Views: Transforming a 70s Property into a Modern Family Home

Situated in a great position on a ridge overlooking the meandering river Avon, this 70’s property needed a makeover to justify a glorious location.

The project involved complete internal remodeling including the removal of a solid external wall on the river side, replaced by a glass wall for a stunning view. Extensions were added for a growing family, and all the walls were rendered and roofs slated for a crisp contemporary style. Inside there are feature staircases, wine cellar and a suspended log burner to compliment this exceptional house.

Bringing Light and Life into the Home: An Oak Frame Kitchen Extension in Ilmington, Warwickshire

Designed to open the internal layout and create a seamless connection between kitchen, dining, and garden spaces, this project joins traditional craftsmanship with contemporary innovation.

With the addition of roof lights and a central roof lantern, the new space offers generous headroom with high levels of natural light, bringing a sense of airiness and calm throughout. Large glazed doors open onto the garden making the space perfect for both quiet mornings and lively family gatherings.
