A single-storey side and rear extension to a Victorian house in the Hale Conservation area.

​

The design features a new side entrance porch, which has been carefully detailed to be sympathetic to the existing period house and street scene. At the rear, a new open-plan kitchen space steps down into a light-filled orangery which opens onto the garden. A connecting walled courtyard garden, to the side of the property, allows westerly light to penetrate deep into the kitchen at the heart of the house.

​

The proposed materials consist of polychromatic patterned brickwork, pale stonework and traditional timber windows and doors, which complement the character of the main house.

​

The new elements respond and enhance the traditional qualities of the existing house while providing contemporary, light-filled spaces which connect with the garden.
