This Victorian terraced house required extensive
gutting, redesign and extension, to transform it into
a family home. The internal walls were demolished
and the layout was completely rearranged to locate
a large open plan sitting room on the first floor at the
fulcrum of the house. The ground floor was extended
with a glazed side return to create a stunning new hi-
tech kitchen with sliding folding glass doors that
open into the courtyard garden. Wall to wall ceiling
height sliding folding doors were designed to
separate the formal dining room from the kitchen
and playroom but providing flexibility for parties and
entertainment when required. At the upper levels five
spacious bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms have
been redesigned including two bedrooms and a
bathroom in a new mansard roof extension.
The result is the complete transformation of a
gloomy old fashioned house into a practical but
aesthetically stimulating contemporary home.
