This was a full renovation project with extensions and alterations that have created a large family home. The house is located in the Newton-on-Ouse conservation area and is an attractive building of rustic red brick construction with interlocking clay pantiled roof. The oak framed extension has been designed to ensure that it is sympathetic with the original style of the property, whilst providing a more usable and up to date layout of a family home including an open plan living/dining area with large fireplace and new kitchen, all of which opens up onto a substantial rear garden. Part of the extension of the property includes a two storey element enabling the house to provide improved first floor accommodation. A further single storey extension was also added to the drawing room. An existing detached outbuilding and garage were also renovated and a new annexe living area was created on part of the ground floor and in the roof space, whilst maintaining a garage to the front. A&J worked closely with the employer's agent, main contractor and subcontractors throughout the construction phase as well as ensuring compliance with local authority requirements.
