THE BUILD IN PICTURES

Planning applications started in September 2017 and the third version was accepted at the end of 2018

Prior to works beginning, in April 2019, the house had a conjoined living and dining room, with a window to the rear. In June 2019, the building was gutted and stripped back to a shell.

This is the old dining room, now the entrance to the front living room. The remainder of the space became the shower and utility room, accessed from the kitchen extension.

There were unexpected obstacles, such as discovering a crack in the original kitchen wall which resulted in having to remove it and support the roof while it was made good.

By September 2019, the first RSJ was in place at the back of the dining area, with the new snug extension to be added to the rear.
