Granger Avenue β€” Maldon, Essex 🏑
γ…€
Two semi-detached, three-bedroom family homes, finally taking shape on a small plot in Maldon West that's been waiting for the right scheme since the early '90s ✨
γ…€
A site many had tried and failed to unlock over the years.. quiet, awkward, much-loved by its neighbours. We worked patiently with the council and the inspectors until we found a design everyone could believe in. Granted on appeal, and rightly so. This is the kind of project our planning team genuinely lives for.
γ…€
Charred timber cladding set above a soft handmade brick plinth. Living green facades that climb the upper storey and shift with the seasons. Front gardens given back to wildflowers and pollinators, framed by simple picket fences and slow brick paths.. a street that feels a little more alive before you've even reached the front door.
γ…€
Inside, the same conviction continues. Lime-plaster walls, wide oak floorboards, brass detailing aged just so, hand-thrown ceramics catching the morning light. Calm rooms designed to ask nothing of you and give a little space back.
γ…€
And underneath all of it, the things that matter most.. high-performance insulation, air source heat pumps, triple glazing, low-impact materials, a very low carbon footprint built in from day one. Quiet, efficient, properly gentle on the land.
γ…€
Maldon itself needs no introduction.. the historic high street, the Thames sailing barges down by the Blackwater, Promenade Park, schools and shops within an easy walk of the front gate. London Liverpool Street under an hour by train.

It took us years to get permission to build here… and honestly, we'd do it all again 🌳

Three Households didn't start on site β€” it started with our planning team. Over twenty years of experience navigating one of the most complex systems in the country.

Because building in a landscape like the Chilterns means every detail matters. The landscape. The community. The ecology. You have to prove that what you're creating genuinely belongs.

We chose Chalfont St Giles because it ticked every box for sustainable development β€” walking distance to the village, close to schools and transport, and existing infrastructure already in place.

Three self-build plots, in the heart of one of Buckinghamshire's most loved villages β€” each one a chance to build a truly bespoke, highly sustainable home of your own.

And the part most people don't expect? Just how rewarding that journey can be.

What if your home was designed entirely around you… and barely cost a thing to run? 🏑

Three Households is something different. Not standard new builds, but three self-build plots β€” each one giving you the freedom to design and build a bespoke five-bedroom detached home of your own.

0.4 acres, generous private gardens, garage and off-street parking, soft green boundaries, and a layout that respects the character of every neighbouring home.

And because sustainability runs through everything we do, we'll help you bring it into yours β€” from orientation and airtightness, to heat pumps, triple glazing, and the kind of detail that makes a real difference to how a home performs.

But it's the location we chose for these plots that really makes Three Households special. That's a story for next time 🌳

Another look at what we're creating at Three Households, Chalfont St Giles 🏑

Swipe through to see how we're bringing this one to life.. three sustainable family homes, designed from the ground up to sit beautifully within the Chiltern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty ✨

These are our early concept visuals showing what the development could look like once complete. Cotswold honey stone paired with dark charcoal timber cladding, glazed gable features flooding the interiors with natural light, and living roofs that will be covered in wildflowers come spring.

Every home has been designed with sustainability at the forefront.. air source heat pumps, triple glazing, structurally insulated panels for maximum energy efficiency. Affordable to buy and genuinely affordable to live in.

Chalfont St Giles is one of those villages that has everything.. a picture-perfect green, independent shops, country walks from the doorstep, and the Metropolitan line putting you in central London in under an hour. The kind of balance families spend years searching for.

We can't wait to see these homes come to life 🀍🌿

Looking back at Fairfield Cottage 🏑

These early concept visuals still give us a real sense of excitement about what's taking shape in Cross in Hand.. two contemporary barn-style homes on a beautifully private plot, surrounded by the East Sussex countryside ✨

Each home sits at around 1,800 sqft with four bedrooms, designed from the ground up with sustainability at the heart of it. Living roofs planted with wildflowers, air source heat pumps, triple glazing and high-performance insulation.. homes that genuinely work with nature rather than against it. In spring, those rooftops are going to be something rather special.

Cross in Hand has all the village charm we love. Lovely walks straight from the doorstep, friendly country pubs, Heathfield just a few minutes down the road. The South Downs and coast are within easy reach, and London is around an hour by train.. the kind of balance that's genuinely hard to find.

It's still early days, but it's one of those projects that reminds you why we do what we do. Process. People. Planet 🀍🌿
