Timber Extension

Edinburgh

Grandparents George and Maggie Ross moved back into Maggie’s childhood home in Edinburgh’s southside.

“It’s a special house with lots of memories and I love being back. The house needed altering so that we could get more connection with the garden. We also wanted to make changes so that we could welcome our children and grandchildren when they come to stay”.

The Ross’s altered the lower ground floor of their Listed building, fitting a wetroom shower next to the spare bedrooms, and a utility room as well as taking a wall down between two rooms on the upper ground floor to make a large family kitchen dining area with a window seat. The kitchen overlooks a new, award winning, oak terrace and staircase leading to a stone garden terrace and access to the lower ground floor.

“We feel that the house layout now works really well for us.”

My view is that it is a very beautiful, but essentially practical, domestic structure which exactly meets the requirements of the client. We thank you very much for that!
