Challenged to make more space – sometimes you actually have the space its just not used in the right way!

Through evaluation of the existing house, the location to the River Stort and the orientation of the house - we have provided a proposal that enhances the living space without costing a fortune, by converting the garage, the biggest space not being used.

The first floor is reconfigured to create a grander entrance door with hallway. The origianal doorway now connects the house to the garage with a new ‘dining’ link. The second floor was also reconfigured, re-locating bedroom doorways to create more internal space.

The tired existing horizontal cladding is replaced with a vertical cladding to bring a more modern aesthetic; working well against the existing charcoal brickwork.

Energy rating is hugely increased by replacing the existing boiler with an air source heat pump, supported by solar panels in the perfect position of a South facing flat roof.
