Having moved into a house that had already been extended and developed, our clients wanted to rework the layout to better suit family life and make the most of what was already there.
Without increasing the footprint, we completely remodelled and replanned the existing house, bringing the previously separate annex into the main design. The new open-plan kitchen and dining space create a sociable heart to the home, with the remodelled patio extending the living space outside and creating a stronger connection between inside and out. A snug provides a more relaxed space for family time, while a dedicated home office and flexible accommodation for guests give the house the versatility needed for everyday life.
Externally, the entrance was reworked with the existing porch roof removed and replaced with a clean flat roof. Corner glazing in the back brings in more light into the house and strengthen the connection with the garden.
The simple combination of anthracite timber cladding with crisp white render gives the remodel a contemporary finish, while retaining the character and footprint of the original home.
