Alteration to existing property
Maisonette new roof & internal floor replacement along with full interior design. Responding to the need to level the existing timber floors and fully replace the existing roof. A new front and rear dormer provide more space at the 2nd floor and new steelwork supports this and the revised internal flat layout. A new broad opening for sliding doors separate the front dining and living areas at 2nd floor level enabling dual aspect views to the tree tops either side. The front enlarged dormer is constructed as a traditional triple timber sash window to match neighbouring details whilst the rear is designed as a wider sloped element finished in standing seam zinc. This more contemporary rear dormer has a full height window opening and sloped glazing to the stairwell creating a bright internal attic space. The interior includes bespoke terrazzo in the fitted kitchen and a combination of minimal sliding pocket doors, reclaimed timber flooring and vintage cast iron radiators to create a minimal yet historically contextual home.
