Our house extension project in East Sheen is progressing well. The external construction is finished, and we are impressed with the new spaces. The extension is spacious and blends seamlessly with the existing structure. In the back of the house, there is a large kitchen/living dining area where residents can gather. A guest area has also been added to provide a private retreat for visitors. Upstairs, a new bedroom in the loft offers a peaceful sanctuary. We have paid close attention to detail demonstrating our dedication to exceptional architectural design.
The client for this project initially approached us in 2017 with the idea of extending their 4-bed semi-detached house in East Sheen. In 2015, the client had obtained planning approval to build a single storey side and rear extension with a double storey corner infill to square off the first floor. However, they were not entirely satisfied with the layout produced by another firm, which led them to seek alternative options from Square One Architects.
Our innovative proposals went beyond the initial plans by extending the house further to the side, taking advantage of the sizable gap between the existing side of the property and a garden wall nearby. This extension not only maximizes the available space but also incorporates a self-contained flat that would serve as a comfortable living area for the client's relatives. Additionally, this versatile room could double as a playroom, creating a flexible and multifunctional space.
To further enhance the living area, we also included a loft extension in our design. This loft extension would add an extra bedroom and bathroom to the existing layout, providing additional functionality and allowing for the growing needs of the client's family.
By incorporating these additional elements, our design aims to meet the client's desires for expanded living space while also ensuring a seamless integration with the existing structure. Our team at Square One Architects is excited to bring this vision to life and provide a space that beautifully accommodates the client's needs for years to come.
