ON SITE: Following the recent planning approval, our exciting modern contemporary residence in Thoroton, Nottingham is now progressing well on site. We are back in for some planning amendments, but we are already looking forwards to bringing you some as built photographs later in the year.
New Build Home Design, Thoroton, Nottingham: A striking modern self build detached family home in the glorious village setting of Thoroton. This is a home designed to be experienced, not just lived in. Light, space, and form come together to create a calm, considered backdrop for modern life – where architecture elevates the everyday and luxury feels effortless.

LOCAL AMENITIES:
Thoroton is a small English village and civil parish in the borough of Rushcliffe, and the county of Nottinghamshire, with a population of 112 at the 2011 census, and increasing to 130 at the 2021 census. The village has conservation area status. Its Anglican parish church is a Grade I listed building. (Wikipedia)
Thoroton is served by buses to Bottesford, Bingham, Newark on Trent and nearby villages.
The nearest railway station is at Aslockton (2.2 miles/3.5 km). It offers regular services between Nottingham and Grantham or Skegness.
Meanwhile, additional amenities are nearby in the market town of Bingham. Bingham is also undoubtedly convenient for the A52 and A46 which provide good road access to the cities of Nottingham and Leicester, while the A1 and M1 are also within easy reach.
