Ground floor extension
Claygate, Surrey
Originally this property consisted of small separate, kitchen, dining room and office at the rear of the house. By adding a large box framed steel support between the dining room and office and adding a 9m x 5m extension, the back of the property was opened up to form an open-plan kitchen and dining space.
The new extension included 6.5m x 4.5m sliding doors and a large angled skylight in the new roof to bring in significant natural light. To provide additional storage, the original kitchen was converted to a utility room and store room.
To bring together the house and garden, a 100m2 slate patio and timber retaining wall were installed as a finishing touch to the project. The project was completed in 20 weeks, on time and in budget.
