The Slate Boathouse

give me project description for oak links for my portfolio project page
Set within the Green Belt in Comberbach, Oak Links brings an existing cottage and annexe together through a carefully considered oak-framed glazed link. Creating a shared main entrance, this light-filled connection unites the two buildings while preserving their individual character.

To the rear, an oak-framed glazed gable forms a distinctive master bedroom, opening onto a balcony overlooking the garden. Natural oak and generous glazing bring warmth, daylight and a closer connection to the outdoors, creating a home shaped around the owners’ lives and its setting.
