Rural House

Rural House is a British prefab home manufacturer, based in London, United Kingdom.

Rural House, operating as R.HOUSE, is a reputable prefab home manufacturer based in the United Kingdom, specifically on the Isle of Skye. The company is a collaborative venture between award-winning architects Rural Design and James MacQueen Builders, merging architectural innovation with construction expertise to deliver high-quality prefabricated timber homes. R.HOUSE positions itself as a provider of an entirely new concept in rural living, focusing on efficiency, quality, and sustainability. The company offers a comprehensive turnkey solution, managing the entire home-building process for its clients. This includes handling planning permission, building warrants, groundworks, and utility connections, right through to the final completion of the house. All homes are prefabricated on the Isle of Skye, a process that ensures speed of construction, consistent quality, and cost certainty for customers. Their commitment to sustainability is central to their operations, influencing design, construction methods, material selection, and even their operational logistics. R.HOUSE's product range features a diverse selection of timber-framed homes designed to suit various needs and plot sizes. Their 'Bothy' collection includes the compact, versatile R.Bothy Beag (suitable as an annexe, studio, or home office), the mid-sized R.Bothy, and the larger R.Bothy Mòr, all ideal as retreats, holiday lets, or starter homes. Other designs range from single-storey one-bedroom homes like the R1, inspired by traditional Scottish longhouses, to a variety of two-bedroom models such as the space-optimizing RB2, the traditional 'two up, two down' R2 and RE2, and the efficient starter RS2. For larger families or those requiring more space, they offer three-bedroom options like the RF3, R3, RE3, RB3, and RS3, as well as expansive designs like the R4, RE5, and RB5. These homes are designed for adaptability, allowing for personalization through a choice of finishes and plot-specific adaptations to meet individual client requirements. While their manufacturing base is on the Isle of Skye, R.HOUSE markets its architect-designed kit houses across Scotland and the broader UK, providing sustainable, high-quality housing solutions.
