Modern kitchen with white cabinets, bronze oven wall, large kitchen island, and dining table, overlooking a back garden through glass sliding doors.

The aim of this project was to provide more usable living space throughout by extending and completely refurbishing a 3-storey end of terrace house, located in the ‘Toast Rack’ on the edge of Wandsworth Common. On the ground floor, a new rear side extension replaces the existing conservatory.  This asymmetrical, white-rendered, pitched-roof extension adds height and interest through its’ fun form to the kitchen/dining area.  It clearly defines the new extension from the existing house, which in turn enhances the original architecture of the house. A large, ridge roof light physically and aesthetically breaks the new extension from the existing rear of the property, whilst allowing natural daylight to flood the kitchen, dining room and sitting room and the sliding doors open the space up to the garden.

The existing cellar was extended and converted into a habitable space, which included a large games room.  It was integrated to the rest of the house through an open staircase.  The light well to the side of the feature stair allows natural light into the basement hallway, where a spiral wine cellar is the focal point. A new mansard roof was added to the main roof at the rear and a second storey with a gable end was created, in order to provide an additional bedroom and bathrooms.
