Remodelling and extension of a period house
To the rear of an Edwardian end-of-terrace house a remodelled rear return and a new living/dining space (with an angled roof) opens up the house to the garden. A large rooflight and generous steps connect this new space to the existing reception rooms. A large corner window and window seat, along with a covered porch allow connections to the outside. Carefully designed internal joinery – including a walk-in utility and walk-in pantry – cater for this young family. The existing first floor return now provides a generous family bathroom and open-plan study area.
