Project Story
This bungalow renovation reflects how thoughtful design can make a lasting difference to everyday life. Rear and side extensions combined with a full internal reconfiguration created a brighter, more accessible home tailored to long-term needs.
The open-plan kitchen, dining, and living space connects seamlessly to the garden, while step-free thresholds, widened doorways, and a fully accessible wet room make the property comfortable and inclusive without compromising style. The project shows how we adapt design to meet both functional requirements and the unique context of Wollaton’s residential character.
🏠 Brendon Road, Wollaton

Project Story
This project turned a detached house into a spacious family home, perfectly suited to modern lifestyles. A two-storey side extension, single-storey rear extension, and loft conversion combined to maximise space across all levels.
The result is a home that balances openness with practicality: an inviting open-plan kitchen and living area for family gatherings, complemented by quiet retreats such as a snug and a home office. The new master suite in the loft, complete with a walk-in wardrobe and full-height glazing, adds both comfort and a touch of luxury.
