This reimagined home reveals itself as a carefully considered piece of contemporary architecture. A crisp, charcoal coloured metal-clad frontage signals the transformation within, sitting confidently alongside the original building and setting a clear design intent from the street.
Inside, the house unfolds as a series of calm, well-proportioned spaces connected by sightlines, texture and light. The plan balances openness with intimacy, allowing each room to feel distinct while remaining part of a cohesive whole. A muted, natural palette runs throughout, providing a quiet backdrop to the architecture and the changing quality of daylight.
At the heart of the home is a striking kitchen, this expansive room comfortably accommodates everyday family life as well as larger gatherings, with clear zones for cooking, dining and relaxation. Glossy white cabinetry is paired with warm wooden style flooring laid in a herringbone pattern, while expansive rooflights draw daylight deep into the plan, shifting the mood throughout the day. A large island anchors the room, creating a natural point for informal dining and conversation, and framing views through to the garden beyond.
In addition, there is a separate snug offering a more intimate retreat, alongside a further large reception room currently used as a gym. This space could equally function as an additional sitting room, home office or ground-floor bedroom, depending on requirements.
The living spaces are arranged to offer flexibility and comfort, with softer textures and exposed brick providing contrast to the cleaner architectural elements. Carefully integrated lighting and bespoke joinery enhance the sense of considered design, allowing the rooms to feel both refined and welcoming.
The bedrooms are calm and generous, each thoughtfully detailed with built-in storage and soft finishes.
The principal suite occupies the entirety of the contemporary side extension linked by a creative walkway, creating a private and well-resolved retreat. It comprises a spacious bedroom, a stylish en-suite bathroom and a dedicated dressing room. This area has been designed so it could be reconfigured to create two bedrooms if desired.
Two further double bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom, completing the accommodation.
To the rear, large glazed openings dissolve the boundary between inside and out, leading onto a landscaped garden designed as an extension of the living space. A raised deck and dining terrace provide areas for entertaining, while the clean lines of the architecture are echoed in the dark fencing, planting and lighting, creating a private and atmospheric outdoor setting.
