On the rear of the house a new contemporary extension clad in standing seam zinc, accommodates a wonderful open plan kitchen/dining/living space.
The extension has a flat roof, pierced with rooflights to allow natural light into the middle of the house. Full height glazing and aluminium doors form one end of the new structure – embracing views across the new terrace and the valley beyond.
The lean-to porch was demolished, the main entrance was relocated and a new stone porch was added. The new entrance leads onto a larger remodelled hallway leading to kitchen and study and is more suited to greeting guests. The original entrance was turned into a window.
The first and second floor originally consisted of many rooms, a small bathroom and no grand master bedroom that one would expect for a house of this size. The reconfigured house now features a luxurious principal bedroom suite. To the rear of the house a new dormer window was added at the top of the stairs, improving the headroom and allowing natural light to flood the stairwell.
