Wickham Cottage

The existing dwelling, consisted of two narrow cottages that had been knocked together and extended numerous times, was not conducive for modern family living.

The scheme introduced a galleried central living space between two rear extensions in the form of two storey projecting gables.

The new kitchen, dining and living spaces created have a strong visual and physical connection to the rear garden and the countryside beyond and the gallery walkway allows the circulation at first floor to be decanted out of the original cottages, allowing the spaces in the original part of the dwelling to be used more efficiently.
