Brief: Extend a rundown hill-top property to create a modern family home that would take advantage of the wonderful views.
Outcome: Following the form of the cottage we extended the ridge out 4.5m, to create a large open plan kitchen with adjoining dining and sitting room that all have superb views across the valley. With the bifold doors open in summer the transformed home offers an idyllic family lifestyle allowing the family to have the space they need whilst being together and with nature.
The bedroom window was installed as a single piece of glass for the best views in the house, perfect, I am told, for storm watching! Location, location, location is very true in this case!
What the owners say: Extending our property has changed the way our family live in our home, allowing us more time in a comfortable shared space and flexibility when it comes to entertaining. The upstairs picture window makes the most of our wonderful views and has the added bonus of being a great place for storm watching!
