The remodel reworked the plan by removing walls, reconfiguring rooms and doubling the size of the kitchen. It also merged two small bedrooms into a generous main bedroom suite and turned the old front study into a light-filled Pilates studio.

Modern comfort is woven discreetly into the old structure, with central heating radiators in every room, skylights, solar panels and full upgrades to wiring, plumbing and double-glazed windows. The kitchen is designed for easy everyday use by two keen cooks, with a large island, concealed fridge, freezer and pantry, layered task and feature lighting, and doors opening directly to an outdoor seating area.
