The Before:

• A Tired House: A typical three-bedroom semi-detached house in a suburban area, characterized by small, compartmentalized rooms, outdated fixtures, and a lack of natural light.

The After: A Modern Family Home

A comprehensive renovation and single-storey rear extension transformed this ordinary house into a stylish and functional family home. Here’s a breakdown of the key changes:

• Open-Plan Living Space: The rear wall was removed to create a spacious, open-plan kitchen-dining-living area. This modern space features:
  • Sleek, minimalist kitchen with high-quality appliances and ample storage.
  • A large dining table, perfect for family meals and entertaining guests.
  • A comfortable seating area with large windows overlooking the garden, flooding the room with natural light.
• Contemporary Kitchen: The new kitchen is the heart of the home, featuring:
  • Modern cabinetry with soft-close doors and drawers.
  • A large island with breakfast bar seating.
  • Integrated appliances, including a fridge-freezer, oven, hob, and dishwasher.
  • Quartz worktops.
• Stylish Bathrooms: Both bathrooms were completely refurbished, with:
  • Modern sanitaryware and fixtures.
  • Stylish tiles and flooring.
  • Underfloor heating for added comfort.
• Bedroom and Loft Conversion: The loft was converted into a spacious bedroom with en-suite bathroom, providing extra living space. Existing bedrooms were also redecorated and modernized.
• Energy Efficiency: The renovation included energy-efficient upgrades, such as:
  • High-performance insulation.
  • Double-glazed windows.
  • A new, energy-efficient boiler.

The Result: The completed project is a stunning example of how a well-executed renovation can dramatically improve a home’s value and livability. The open-plan layout, modern design, and energy-efficient features create a comfortable, stylish, and sustainable living space for a growing family.
