Grinstead Lane
Structural reconfiguration & full renovation
The complete transformation of the ground floor of a family home, combining significant structural alterations with a full internal renovation.
At the heart of it was the removal of the main structural spine wall running through the property. Extensive temporary works went in before the wall came out, and a substantial steel box-frame system was introduced to create a large open-plan kitchen, dining and living space.
The garage was converted and integrated into the house, the ground-floor WC and drainage were relocated, and an existing room was divided to create a utility room and a playroom. A new opening at the rear took large bifold doors.
