The clients brief was to transform a typical 3 bedroom detached 1970s estate house into a unique contemporary 5 bedroom family dwelling, with a large open plan kitchen dining space at ground floor that would form the heart of the house.

The project involved extending the building to both the side and rear to provide two additional bedrooms upstairs and the large open plan kitchen downstairs opening out onto the garden. The works also involved some remodelling of the elevations and roof to provide a more contemporary appearance, replacement of all windows and doors, renedreing the whole property in lime render, and a complete internal fit out.

The existing external walls were insulated internally using a propriety wall lining system and the existing heating system replaced with underfloor heating fed from a high efficiency gas boiler. All windows were triple glazed to enhance thermal performance. The construction period was 6 months and the works completed in 2013.
