Montash Properties Limited

Cox Vernacular Buildings now specialize in the construction of Kent vernacular timber framed houses. Internally, our houses are characterized by superb oak timber frames which include braces, posts and joists, enhanced by handmade brick or timber floors, inglenook fireplaces and purpose made joinery.

Externally, a wide variety of finishes are used, These finishes are brick, stone, weatherboard, lime render or tile hanging, or perhaps a combination of two or more of these. The choice of external finishes is usually influenced by local materials and architecture. Timber frames are versatile and can be clad with almost any material.

Our attention to detail throughout our houses is carried out with passion and flair. We use lime putty mortars, Flemish bonded brickwork, quality clay tiles and the finest English oak from Kent and Sussex.

Oak timber frames are made using correct 16th Century joists and oak pegs. Frames, doors and windows are all hand made in our workshops. This passion for period detailing is endemic throughout the Company, right from the boss to our architects, site managers and quality tradesmen. All our staff are rightly proud of the houses we build and we would be delighted if you would further your interest in our passion.
