CHALLENGES AND SOLUTIONS

It was a quaint home in a highly sought after location, yet it was calling out to have a new front façade to instate its rightful place within the local street scene. With discord within the internal of the dwelling too, extensive remodelling was required to create uniformed spaces. New extensions to the front and side have reinstated the natural flow throughout the property starting with the new crittall double front doors and entrance hall. This gives way to a glorious living arrangement that is very much open and connected, yet provides spaces for solitude and self-containment too.

Upstairs, a master-suite has been created with a beautiful dressing room and en-suite. Downstairs, an inner hall and the addition of the fourth bedroom and en-suite created a self-contained guest suite. The once flat roofed office and play room has been transformed into a pitch roofed stunning kitchen with bi-folding doors letting natural light flood the space and providing the perfect entertainment space that spills onto the patio area. To seamlessly unite old with new, render has been applied in a pale creamy palette, with the new build garage being of russet bricks to provide a contrast. The end result has created a truly stunning home.
