A comprehensive redevelopment of a stunning four bedroom detached home within a private gated development.
The existing property, originally constructed circa 1995 in a traditional brick and flint style, had been previously extended at ground floor level. However, the layout had become restrictive, with poor spatial flow and a lack of cohesion and character.
Given the property’s location within a small, high-quality gated development of just five houses, the local planning authority placed strong emphasis on ensuring that any extension remained sympathetic in scale and character.
A key consideration was to deliver a significantly enlarged home without detracting from the established architectural language of the development or impacting neighbouring properties.
We provided a full architectural service from concept through to completion, including our role as Principal Designer under CDM Regulations.
Our involvement included:
The scale of the new extension required a carefully considered design approach to avoid a monolithic appearance. We introduced a balanced contemporary style that complemented the original architecture while clearly elevating the overall design quality.
Key design responses included:
Construction Cost: £750,000
