R2.5
About This Home
The R2.5 sits between the R2 and R3 in the Rural House contemporary range, with a floor area of 124.4 m² on a 13.3 x 5.47 m footprint. The name signals an incremental rather than generational step, with the main additions being updated heating, cooling, and water systems alongside a sleeker exterior profile. Smart features are included, and the insulation and glazing specification is notably improved over the R2.
The model works across one or two storeys and includes modern outdoor space options. For buyers who find the R2 tight but aren't ready to step up to the full R3 specification, the R2.5 offers a considered middle ground. Scottish and UK building regulation compliance is standard across the range.
What We Love
The R2.5 fills a genuine gap in the Rural House range, offering a more polished contemporary home than the R2 without the full jump in size and specification to the R3.
