W A Hare & Son, a local family building and joinery manufacturing company based at Kelfield between Selby and York have won the Best New Home Award by the LABC for the North and East Yorkshire Region and will be automatically entered into the regional final.

The award was won for a striking New Modern House sympathetically linked to two traditional converted barns designed architect Ric Blenkharn, York. The work was supervised by site agent Chris Holmes.

We will soon have to extend out trophy cabinet, with our senior site agent Malcolm Hoe winning the NHBC Pride in the Job Award earlier this year as well as a shield award for the best site manager for a housing project in Cliffe near Selby.

The Federation of Master Builders have entered us into the National Final to be held in London in September having won the Yorkshire and Trent Regional Awards earlier in the year for a Kitchen Project in Heslington.

“With the icing on the cake winning the Best New Home Award by the LABC, it is good to have recognition for our team of craftsmen” says MD Nick Hare.
