Cottage Refurbishment and Rear Kitchen Extension
This property had been split into a ground floor and first floor flats. The new owners wanted to reinstate the original layout of the property, turning the two individual flats back into one family home.
A rear extension was also added to create a large kitchen/diner and snug. |
Rear Kitchen Extension
The owner of this beautiful cottage was looking to create an open plan kitchen/diner and increase the natural light coming into the rear of the property.
The floor area was extended, squaring off the previous two extensions and installing a pair of bi-fold doors on the rear elevations, maximising the natural light. The existing kitchen was removed and relocated to create a kitchen/diner with views of the garden.
