This garden house in Oxton was developed in the rear of our clients property, for them to retire into. The house was based on the 1970’s steep pitched dormer bungalows of the surrounding area, but with a modern twist, adding the full height dormer.
By extending the dormer out from the back of the house, the rear elevation features an impressive glass wall; the main living room, kitchen and bedrooms all over looking the garden.
The form of the building was designed to be similar in scale to the surrounding properties but the extended rear bay gave them the extra space they required whilst it kept the garden as large as possible.
The three bedroom property is insulated to above building control standards and will give them a low cost house which will be more economical to run than the 1970’s property they are moving from.
