Our client wished to transform a small 80sqm bungalow into a large contemporary five-bedroom family home to maximise the potential of the site in Bearsden, Glasgow.

Our proposal involved extensive remodelling to the rear of the house including a large full width extension and the complete removal and re-building of the roof to encompass this. By working closely with East Dunbartonshire Council we were able to design a new steeper pitched roof with new dormers, allowing us to form a second storey and create a GIA of 220sqm.

The new extension to the rear houses a large contemporary family room with a generous open plan kitchen; living and dining area, incorporating large glazed sliding doors that access a new raised deck in the garden. The exterior was transformed with traditional slate tiles and contrasting contemporary zinc dormers for an overall bold modern monochrome colour palette.
