Challenge

Transforming a dark and underused Victorian roofspace within a mid-terrace home into a light-filled new level, while working around the constraints of the existing rear outrigger and creating generous accommodation that felt integral to the house.

Approach

Maximising the potential of the roof through a carefully proportioned L-shaped dormer conversion, extending across both the main roof and rear outrigger to unlock substantial additional space without compromising the character, balance or liveability of the original Victorian home.

Solution

Delivering an additional 39 square metres of bright, practical and well-designed living space, creating a spacious new upper floor that improved the home’s comfort, flexibility and long-term value from planning permission through to completion.
