At L Vickery Building Contractors Ltd, we take pride in delivering high-quality building projects that combine craftsmanship, structural integrity, and thoughtful design. This three-bedroom new-build bungalow in Ilfracombe is a great example of how careful planning and technical expertise can transform a challenging site into a desirable modern home.


This development was not a straightforward build. The site required significant groundwork, including the construction of engineered retaining walls into the embankment to ensure long-term stability and safety.

Working with sloped terrain demands precision. From excavation through to structural support, every stage required detailed coordination to ensure the finished property would be secure, level, and built to last. By integrating the retaining walls into the natural landscape, we were able to maximise usable space while maintaining the integrity of the surrounding ground.


The retaining wall system plays a vital role in the success of this project:

  • Providing essential structural support.

  • Preventing soil movement and erosion.

  • Creating a stable foundation for the bungalow.

  • Allowing for practical landscaping and outdoor space.


Our team managed the groundworks carefully to ensure proper drainage, reinforcement, and long-term durability, particularly important in coastal environments where weather exposure can be a factor.


The completed bungalow offers:


  • Three well-proportioned bedrooms

  • A bright open-plan living space

  • Modern kitchen and bathroom facilities

  • Energy-efficient construction methods

  • Accessible single-storey living


The result is a property designed for comfort, efficiency, and longevity.


At L Vickery Building Contractors Ltd, we believe that every project, whether large or small deserves the same level of attention to detail. From initial groundwork to final finishes, our focus remains on:


  • Strong structural foundations

  • Clean, professional workmanship

  • Clear communication throughout the build

  • Delivering projects on schedule


This bungalow reflects our commitment to high standards and practical problem-solving, particularly when working with complex terrain.


We are proud to contribute to the continued development of Ilfracombe by delivering homes that meet modern expectations while respecting the surrounding environment. Thoughtful design and robust construction ensures that each property we build adds long-term value to the community.
