First floor
Diarmid Baird designed his house when he was 12 years old and has now made his childhood dream into a reality.
The house has an open-plan kitchen, dining and living space downstairs as well as two guests rooms, a bathroom, store room, utility and toilet.
Cantilevered stairs lead to a mezzanine space, a large enclosed sitting room, two further bedrooms and a bathroom. Most of the rooms feature large sliding doors that lead out onto the ground and first floor terraces.
The Baird’s wanted their house to be eco-friendly and energy efficient and so it is built to Passivhaus standards and also makes use of a wind turbine.
