Extension

Located in Upton upon Severn, this project is a great example of how an extension does not always have to be about adding huge amounts of space. Sometimes, a relatively modest addition and some thoughtful reconfiguration can completely transform how a home works.

The property originally featured an ageing conservatory positioned in the centre of the rear elevation. This was demolished and replaced with a new extension built on a similar footprint, with the aim of creating a more practical and luxurious master bedroom arrangement.

One of the existing bedrooms in the bungalow was simply too small to function effectively. There was limited space for furniture and storage, and the layout was not making the best use of the available floorplan.

By replacing the conservatory with a new extension and reconfiguring the internal layout, we created a spacious new double bedroom alongside a dedicated dressing room. The former small bedroom was transformed into a bespoke dressing area complete with built-in wardrobes and a vanity unit, allowing the bedroom itself to remain uncluttered and feel like a true master suite.

The result is a home that feels significantly more spacious and practical without requiring a large extension. Dedicated storage, improved flow and a much more comfortable bedroom have completely changed how the property is used.

Completed in around eight weeks, this project demonstrates how intelligent design can often deliver just as much impact as additional square footage.
