This beautifully executed single-story rear extension—demonstrates how thoughtful design can enhance living spaces and improve quality of life. This extension has not only increased the usable area of the home but has also created a warm and inviting atmosphere for family gatherings and entertaining.
Thoughtful Design for Modern Living
The primary goal of this project was to create an open-plan kitchen and dining area that seamlessly connects with the outdoor space, perfect for keeping an eye on a young family. Our team worked closely with the homeowners to ensure that the design met their needs while maximising light and functionality.
Key Features of the Extension
Roof Light on Flat Roof: One of the standout features of this extension is the roof light embedded in the flat roof. This element floods the space with natural light, creating an airy and bright environment. The addition of natural light not only enhances the aesthetics but also makes the space feel larger and more inviting.
Large Bi-Fold Doors: The installation of large bi-fold doors allows for a seamless transition between the indoor and outdoor areas. When opened, these doors create a wide entrance that invites the outside in, perfect for summer gatherings or family barbecues.
Open Plan Kitchen and Dining Area: The heart of this extension is the open-plan kitchen and dining area, designed for both functionality and style. This layout enables the whole family to be together in one room without being on top of one another. The modern kitchen is equipped with high-quality appliances and generous storage solutions, ensuring that it meets the demands of everyday life.
Stylish Tiled Floors: The choice of tiled flooring throughout the extension adds a touch of elegance while being practical and easy to maintain. The tiles complement the overall design aesthetic and provide a durable surface that can withstand the rigors of daily use.
Cosy Snug: To enhance the comfort of the home, we created a snug area within the extension. This intimate space is perfect for relaxation and unwinding after a long day. Fully decorated with cosy furnishings, it serves as a retreat for family members to enjoy quiet moments together.
Oak Worktops: The use of oak worktops in the kitchen adds warmth and character to the space. The natural beauty of the wood creates a striking contrast with the modern design elements, providing both functionality and style.
Brick Slips Feature Wall: One of the most eye-catching aspects of the extension is the feature wall adorned with brick slips around the TV area. This design choice adds texture and depth, creating a focal point that enhances the overall aesthetic of the room. The combination of the rustic brick slips with the modern features of the extension creates a harmonious blend of styles.
Conclusion
This single-story rear extension project showcases the versatility and potential of home improvement. By focusing on the needs and desires of the homeowners, we were able to create a space that not only meets their functional requirements but also enriches their living experience.
