This heavily altered 1950's house was last used as a residential training centre. Situated in a conservation area, it underwent statutory permissions for an extension & large amount of remodelling & refurbishment. Once complete, it presented a modernised 5-bedroom home, complete with a new Living area (with a feature roof to bring natural light into an otherwise deep plan), linked to a new Dining room & spacious Kitchen (all facing a Patio in the landscaped rear Garden), Playroom, two Office rooms, & Utility on the ground floor. Upstairs - a Master Bedroom Suite, Bathroom & four other Bedrooms (two of which would share an Ensuite). The habitable room locations were rationalised while taking into consideration the best use of space, circulation & reduced demolition.
