Coach House

The brief from the client was to enlarge an existing one bedroom house into a two bed contemporary house. The existing house was in a very poor condition and it was being used mainly for storage.  

The ground floor was set back from the first floor line and as a result the ex-isting ground floor area was very dark. The rear of the house was extending into the garden which was already too small.

The proposed alterations including the reconfiguration of the Ground Floor, with a new open plan Kitchen/Living /Dining arrangement, and the reloca-tion of the staircase which allowed for the addition of an extra bedroom and a bathroom on the first floor. 

At the front of the ground floor, a new entrance lobby has been created and the rear has been opened to the garden which has been enlarged. The result is that the house gets a lot more natural light and ventilation and a better circulation helps to create a contemporary house that would much the needs of a modern family.
