The brief was to remodel the ground floor and provide further accommodation to a typical bungalow. Careful consideration was given to the massing and elevation composition, with large areas of glazing added to the rear south elevation. This provided views into the mature garden; improved daylight levels within the ground floor and maximised solar gain.

The ground floor re-modelling comprised of;

• Conversion of existing garage into a hobby room & store
• Creation of utility area
• New glazed kitchen & dining area leading onto
• Rear terrace

The first floor roof area was remodelled and extended to provide;

• A large master bedroom with en-suite
• Terrace
• Store

Careful consideration was given to the materials and environmental factors. These included;

• The existing fabric was insulated to improve overall energy efficiency, with levels exceeding Building Regulations.
• Underfloor heating system
• Double glazed sliding doors/ window system to maximise views & solar gain
• Brise soleil added to south elevation
• Sustainable Siberian Larch cladding used
• Existing timber parquet floor retained & refurbished.

The project completed in 2015.
