This project consisted of demolition of the existing garage & extension whilst protecting the existing 18th century thatched cottage.  To build a 3 bedroom single story extension with two new bathrooms, kitchen/dining room, kids den, study & utility.  Full renovation of existing thatched property. The main objective was to retain the character of the cottage and contrast with light, modern extension beyond. 

This project is a treasure chest of outstanding features and was an absolute pleasure working with such fantastic designs and ideas.  This property is 300 y/o with a beautiful thatched roof.  This project was fitted with a ground source heat pump resulting in no gas required to the property, there is an MVHR system installed.  The new extension is clad with black Siberian larch and fully knapped field flint and dark mortar which really compliments the exiting thatched cottage.  The cinema room boasts a hidden cinema screen that comes down from the ceiling using a remote control.  All blinds are electric and all electrics are state of the art Lutron fittings.  The cottage toilet has been fitted with a heated wall.  The mezzanine children’s play den has been fitted with a modern glass balustrade and LED strip lights built into the wall and plastered to create futuristic lighting.  The main bathroom has an iroko clad cistern wall making it an outstanding focal point of the property.  The study is fitted with bespoke handmade furniture made in house.  Light floods through this property through the roof lights & vast patio doors.

Awards

This project was awarded The Federation of Master Builders Award 2021 for both ‘Large Renovation Project‘ and ‘Bathroom Project’

This modern white clad property (and art studio) can be found right on the seafront in West Wittering.  We demolished the old original ‘Pine Hut’ and replaced it with this beautiful SIPs constructed new build.  The main house consists of a glorious balcony overlooking the coast, 3 bedrooms, ensuite, family bathroom, hall, lounge, open plan kitchen, downstairs toilet, and utility room.

A key requirement of this seafront project was to create an art studio annex detached from the main house.  This art studio is flooded with natural light and fully fitted with its own bathroom and kitchenette.  We salvaged and restored the stunning Victorian sit in bath from the original property which now takes pride of place in the bathroom of the annex.  Below the art studio is a double garage and electric garage door.

And like all seaside homes, this would not be complete without an outside shower!

This project comprised a single storey extension and kitchen renovation to increase and enhance ground floor accommodation. 

Eye-catching diagonal kebony cladding has been fitted to the exterior of the extension.  Beautiful modern kitchen and dining room have formed a truly stylish open plan living space with direct connection to the west facing garden.
