Project Overview

A Victorian terrace rebuilt for modern living

This was one of our most involved projects to date. The existing Victorian property was stripped back to brick, allowing us to re-plan the building from the ground up and address a century of tired, piecemeal alterations in one coordinated programme of work.

The scope covered a full loft conversion with a slate-clad dormer, rear extensions across the lower floors, and major structural alterations — new steelwork and floor structures to open up the plan and support the additional storey above. Alongside the structural work, the building received a complete thermal upgrade, including external wall insulation, bringing a solid-walled Victorian property up to current building regulations.

The finished property delivers generously sized en-suite rooms, a large communal kitchen and living space, and a specification well above the standard expected of a house in multiple occupation.
