Victorian Semi Detached House - Extension, Interior Remodel & Design

A semi detached Victorian villa which initially required an interior remodel of both kitchen and bathroom, however subsequently benefitted from a rear / side extension, which enabled modernisation and maximum use of space.

A wrap around single storey extension, enabled the development of a modern open planned kitchen and dining / living area with a further utility area and WC accessing a private gated driveway to the rear of the property.

The use of opening velux roof lights and a large bifolding window wall changed the aspect and light quality of the previous dark kitchen and living area, enabling a much better spatial flow and versatility of the space, with the kitchen bifold doors opening at level onto new timber decking, which in turn leads onto a large lawned area.

The first floor also benefited from a remodel, with the repositioning of a bathroom to enable the use of a virtually redundant landing space. This allowed a redistribution of space to gain a larger master bedroom and a reconfigured bathroom with new installations.

Kitchen installations include bespoke cabinetry with integrated appliances and a central breakfast island.

Within the dining / living area of the new open plan space, the hearth which was blocked up in the 80's, was revealed and the original arch restored, with a new Defra wood stove installed, offering a functional occasional heat source and focal point for the living area.

The bathroom design incorporates a reclaimed Victorian mahogany chiffonier repurposed as a washbasin / vanity unit, with crosshead wall mounted faucets. The oversized vanity mirror is complimented by tall / vertical positionable vanity lights.

Other specified materials used throughout the project include blue/grey and white tumbled limestone floor tiles, bespoke hand painted wall panelling, reclaimed and restored industrial light fittings and reclaimed and restored engineered maple flooring.
