GEORGIAN HOUSE
The total overhaul of a listed Georgian farmhouse
The clients fell in love with the potential of this Georgian farmhouse, but felt its awkward layout and small kitchen were going to be a challenge for their large family.
Our research led us up a turret of Arundel Castle to delve into the archives of the Duke of Norfolk, which revealed that one of the south-facing rooms was in fact a Victorian addition.
Armed with this historical insight, we were able to convince the planners to allow us to move the kitchen into the heart of the house, where it can be properly appreciated and used to its full potential.
The new layout works wonderfully for both family life and entertaining, making the house a joy to live in.
“Strong design skills and construction knowledge meant that Tom was able to foresee issues and present new opportunities based on the historical nature of the build… I was thrilled with the results”
