A complete restoration and refurbishment of a large family home creating extra living space, maximising the garden and retaining the original features of the house. Applying a blended approach to family open-plan living, creating an airy more casual space with a large lantern and sliding glass wall. Whilst the drawing-room restoration is one of our favourite spaces, involving careful restoration of all cornice work and traditional detailing. A traditional window seat was designed and made to work perfectly with the alcove, creating a unique space that is comfortable and inviting with hidden storage. The beautiful old staircase has been restored to its original beauty, then replicated to lead up to the generous space created from the roof extension that houses to bedrooms, both with ensuite bathroom and a cosy snug. Throughout the renovation we made sure that each detail is carefully designed and made to fit in with lifestyle requirements.
