The original house had convoluted internal circulation with a steep staircase in the middle of the home, a living room that became a passageway to the kitchen and poor connection to the garden.
We added a three storey side extension containing a welcoming, light-filled entrance hall and staircase. A two storey and single storey rear extension containing additional bedrooms, open plan kitchen & dining area. Moving the staircase unlocked the potential of the existing rooms maximising the space available.
By rearranging the internal layout and adding the extension, three bedrooms now enjoy views of the garden. In the kitchen we introduced wide sliding doors, seamlessly connecting this space to the outside.
The design uses the potential of the original house to create a safe, comfortable family home.
