A Home Steeped in Heritage<\/strong> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Nestled amid the tranquil Dorset countryside,\u00a0White Roses\u00a0is a home with history woven into every brick. Once part of the estate owned by the Rose family\u00a0–\u00a0the founders of the world-famous Rose\u2019s Lime Cordial<\/a>\u00a0–\u00a0the property carries a name that honors its storied past. Originally built around 1810 and thoughtfully extended in the 1920s, the house embodies classic English charm.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the current owners embarked on their most recent transformation – the addition of a light-filled orangery – they envisioned not just a new room, but a renewed way of living. The goal was to create an elegant transition between the house and garden, where the boundary between indoors and outdoors would all but disappear. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Brief<\/strong> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To complement the newly built orangery, the owners wanted to extend its serene, airy aesthetic outwards onto a veranda that would blur the line between inside and out. The challenge was to find a decking material that would mirror the refined interior flooring while being exceptionally durable in the elements. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This project was as much about visual continuity as it was about lifestyle. The family wanted a space that would invite them to linger outdoors all year round, whether hosting friends on summer evenings or enjoying quiet winter mornings sheltered beneath the orangery\u2019s overhang. <\/p>\n\n\n
