Elmbank House
Rear Extension
The property is a Victorian mid-terraced, two storey, 3 bed room house, Built in rick work which form an 'M’ type butterfly roof .
The property consists of an L shaped footprint with along two storey projected rear building. The house is very narrow and internal walls block the flow of move and light and there was limited access to the garden.
​
The owner wishes to improve the property by erecting a roof extension at second floor level in the shape of a mansard and to have a side return in the form of ‘lean-to-roof’ at ground level along the rear projected wing.
​
A large open plan living space was created by opening up the front and rear reception rooms with new side infill space, providing ample living and family gathering space for our client’s young child and unborn baby.
​
A fully glazed skylight to the side extension allows for increased light levels and improved connections between the spaces linking the front of the house to the rear garden with side bench seating area along the new frank wall.
​
To rear facade, A large glass pivoting window enables people can seat from in and out of the house enjoying reading and dinning.
A calm material palette of reclaimed bricks and oak flooring gives a sense of warmth and texture to the home.
The rich detailing gives a tactile scale to the new domestic spaces.

The site comprises a two storey semi-detached dwelling located on the east side of Barton Green. The surrounding area is predominantly residential in character and appearance consisting mainly of semi-detached dwellings.
The owner sought to improve the property by erecting a single storey side and rear extension and loft conversion within the existing roof shape following the demolition of the existing side extension.

Epsom
Site context
The applicant site indicated in red mark is on the semi-detached residential area. The applicant site is not located within a conservation area and does not registered as a listed building
Design proposal
The proposal contains a 5m rear single-storey extension and 3.5m rear first-floor extension.
​
Ground floor
Compared to the massive outlook of the existing building, the existing internal layout is split into several small spaces. This layout provides less flexible space for the client lifestyle; storage, use of kitchen, children playtime, and so on. Therefore, the rear ground extension is an essential decision to enhance the client's living quality. The garage converted into a new bedroom for the child and the existing utility will move backward to accommodate with new kitchen. The existing roof maintains its pitched roof form but it will be elevated to first-floor roofline in order to provide a quality of habitable height.
First floor
With regard to size and loss of character of space, the proposal introduces 3.5m rear extension on the master bedroom. The proposed space will be a private lounge for the parents with a beautiful rear garden view. The width of the extension will be 4m which is less than half of the total building width (8.29m), combined main building and side garage. The core objection of the proposed lounge provides the congregation space for family detached from public space (living room/kitchen).
