The clients, a retiring vicar and his wife,
wanted the house to take on a new lease of life as a 'house for
a large family' - complete with sink 'to wash the dog' and a
porch 'to store the pram'.
The resultant conversion added a two-storey
extension to the rear, a single storey to the side, a
conservatory also to the rear and porch to the front. An
additional circular window was added to the front, which
provides a central focus in a blank wall and lights a dark
corner.

The clients were keen to open up the house
internally and this was done largely through reversing the
original staircase and providing a large window over the stair.
Extra routes through the house were created through the rear
conservatory.
The house, which was small, damp, dark and pokey,
has been transformed into a much larger and spacious dwelling. |
