Haddonstone was commissioned by award-winning Octagon Developments to manufacture the cast stone architectural components, including door and window surrounds, for its flagship development, Broadoaks Park.
Octagon Developments has earned an excellent reputation for high standards of design, build quality and customer service, resulting in the Gold award for the Best Luxury Development at the recent WhatHouse? Awards.
Broadoaks Park is located in West Byfleet, Surrey, and is spread across 25 acres. This exclusive, gated development of luxurious homes offers countryside living, coupled with excellent connections into London. The development features over 115 new-build homes, along with 10 carefully restored, refurbished and converted homes from existing Listed buildings, including a red-brick Grade II Listed mansion, original lodges, and a coach house.
Haddonstone’s in-house team worked closely with Octagon’s in-house architects to design and manufacture each cast stone component. Every architectural design was handmade to order in their own Northamptonshire manufactory, using both traditional and modern techniques. Haddonstone’s TecStone wet-cast material was chosen for the project, with each piece of stonework being produced in their classic Portland colour.
Haddonstone was commissioned to help manufacture a broad range of façade stonework including bespoke porticos and stone door surrounds in a variety of styles. Cast stone window dressings were also produced including window surrounds, curved and straight window heads, and window cills. Further cast stone elements manufactured for the project included wall dressings such as string courses, cornices, copings and gable vents. Final finishing touches included bespoke Octagon cast stone accents featuring their iconic ‘O’ logo.
The first delivery of cast stonework to the site was made in July 2019. Further deliveries will continue into 2024, when the gated parkland estate is due to complete. The Haddonstone team worked closely with the site management team to co-ordinate deliveries in line with their build programme. The stone for each plot is delivered on clearly identifiable pallets, so the site team can easily identify which plot and which area it is for.
