Alteration to existing property
Cortworth Road was a dark, and dated 1960s house, with disconnected internal spaces that didn’t work for family life. We worked closely with Andy and Jodie to completely transform the layout of their home, creating an inviting family environment that they’ll enjoy for years to come. With our new layout and rear extension we were able to add a playroom, utility and downstairs WC, new master bedroom suite and a larger bedroom for their youngest child to grow into. The open-plan family spaces open out onto the garden, and all rooms are centred around a fantastic double height entrance hall flooded with light. A new contemporary material palette and high performance windows have lifted the appearance of the house inside and out creating a modern family home. At the same time these windows along with improved insulation and airtightness have made the house warm and comfortable to live in. We managed the whole process from design to construction and were the first point of contact for Andy and Jodie giving them peace of mind.
