This project is for a loft extension on a house in Isleworth.
The property was a 3-bed semi-detached house on a quiet residential road of similar styled houses. The neighbouring properties had recently had works done including hip to gable conversions and rear dormers, giving the green light to the current property for similar opportunities to expand.
Working with the client we extended the loft through a hip to gable conversion transforming the space into a master bedroom with dressing area and an en-suite bathroom with a shower.
Following their request for ample natural light we designed a wide window that encompasses most of the bedroom to the rear with sweeping views of the garden and the trees beyond and installed multiple skylights so that both the bathroom and the staircase are filled with natural daylight. Using light colours and materials the new spaces reflect the natural illumination and make the space feel bright, airy, and spacious as is also shown in the photos.
The extension was made feasible without affecting the arrangements of the existing lower floor rooms. Through this small intervention the house benefitted through enlarged internal spaces, better lighting, and additional amenities. At the same time, it assisted in creating cohesion with the neighbouring houses retaining the local style.
