The Garda
About This Home
The Garda is a substantial four-bedroom Scandia-Hus family home at 242 m², designed across two storeys with an open-plan kitchen, dining and family room at its centre, plus a separate sitting room and study. It is a strong option for households where adults work from home and children need separate space, and the layout reflects that without making the home feel like a floor plan exercise.
Swedish timber frame construction brings the same high-performance thermal credentials as the rest of the range: superior insulation, triple glazing, and options for solar panels, air source heat pump, and brick, render or timber cladding. Three bathrooms include an en-suite in the master bedroom. Utility room, ground floor WC, and integral garage add practical utility to a well-resolved family home.
What We Love
The Garda's combination of a generous open-plan family room and a separate sitting room gives it real functional separation for households that need both communal space and somewhere quiet to retreat to.
