Complete refurbishment of Victorian house with a new side extension and rear dormer The house has not have had any work done for two generations and we had to cope with crumbling plaster and uneven internal walls. Several original features have been preserved, including a missing piece in the front reception room cornice which according to the previous owners fell down during a Blitz attack during WW2. We added a side extension for an enlarged kitchen dining room, with Crittal doors to the back and water based underfloor heating and a sound system. The front rooms have been joined up and a new timber flooring installed on the whole ground floor. The first floor features now two single, good sized bedrooms, family bathroom and a large master bedroom. All windows were replaced to double glazed sash windows, which helped to restore the character of this building. The pre-existing pebble dash front facade was taken back to the brick, restored and painted. The full width rear dormer extension houses a new guest suite with a shower room and storage under the eaves.
