Bring the kitchen down to the garden, turn the garage into everyday living space and make room for a fourth bedroom upstairs.
A personal walkthrough of the ideas, the changes to each floor and how the spaces work together.
Rework a three-storey townhouse around a connected ground-floor kitchen, dining and family room. Keep the first-floor lounge and gain a fourth bedroom.
Before An integral garage takes much of the ground floor, with the kitchen and main living space upstairs.
After Convert the garage and rear rooms into a connected kitchen, dining and family space. A fitted kitchen with a short peninsula faces a dining table and seating, with a wide glazed opening to the garden.
After A shower room with WC and basin occupies the front of the former garage. The hall and staircase retain a separate route between floors.
After The former first-floor kitchen becomes a bedroom. A new bathroom sits beside it, while the front lounge remains separate. The second floor keeps its three bedrooms and existing bathroom.
