In a new two-storey side extension we provided a music room at the ground level and master bedroom with dressing area and en-suite at the first floor. The roof over the master bedroom is vaulted and incorporates remote-controlled rooflights. A gallery over the dressing/en-suite area is accessed via a space-saver staircase and provides a tranquil retreat area. Externally we replaced the plastic weather-boarding with render and added a single-storey zinc-roofed garden room with wood-burning stove.
