The site involved for this project was a Grade II listed house in South Gloucestershire, requiring a number of works throughout the house which were tied up into a single Listed Building Consent application covering both additions and removals of parts of the existing structure.

At ground floor a poorly planned arrangement for ancillary rooms was rationalised to create a better planned ground floor WC and to bring laundry facilities into the house where these had previously existed in a separate outbuilding, and improve daylight penetration into what was previously a dark part of the main building.

At first floor the changes were more significant and included removal of existing walls as well as provision of new ones, to create a light and sunny master suite to the house. This was enabled by combining two existing bedrooms to create a master with shower room and separate dressing room linked by a glazed door; at loft level a previously converted useable loft space without bathroom facilities was enhanced by providing en-suite WC facilities where none had existed before to offset the loss of the bedroom at first floor level.

Provisions were also discussed with the client for further works under later phases involving conversion of an existing garage on site to create a home office, however at the time of writing these phase have not been taken forwards.
