Location: Pitsford Water, Northampton 
Client: Seagrave Developments 
Project Type: Exclusive development - new-build barns & mansion 

 

Project Overview 

This high-end residential development at Pitsford Water showcases a collection of bespoke barn-style homes alongside a substantial main mansion house, all set within a premium waterside location. 

Designed with a focus on generous internal space and a high specification throughout, the project required a structural timber solution capable of supporting both architectural ambition and practical performance. The main house, in particular, demanded a robust and carefully considered roof structure to maximise usable space without compromising on design. 

Harlow Timber supplied a full structural timber package, supporting the development from design through to manufacture, ensuring accuracy, reliability, and consistency across all elements. 

 

Scope of Supply 

  • Large attic trusses for the main house  
  • Posi-Joists  
  • Full truss and joist package  

 

Key Highlights 

  • Standout roof structure: The main house featured large attic trusses, forming a key architectural element of the build  
  • Maximised usable space: Attic trusses created significant additional living space within the roof  
  • Precision for a premium setting: The exclusive waterside location required a high level of design accuracy and manufacturing quality  
  • Collaborative design process: MiTek drawings were used to support visualisation and ensure alignment with the wider build team  
  • Proven partnership: A longstanding relationship with Seagrave Developments, built on trust, consistency, and reliable delivery  

 

Outcome 

This project highlights Harlow Timber’s ability to deliver complex structural timber solutions for luxury residential developments. From large-scale attic trusses to a complete joist package, every element was designed and manufactured to meet the demands of a high-specification build. 

Working closely with Seagrave Developments, the project benefitted from a collaborative and dependable approach, ensuring the structural timber package was delivered efficiently and to the highest standard. The result is a development that combines strong structural performance with the flexibility and space expected in modern luxury homes.
