Project Description

The property is a 6-bedroom family home in the heart of Crosby and when purchased some years ago required considerable work and updating. The clients had carried out much of the work themselves but required assistance to get through the last phase of their project. Octo Architects were appointed to carry out the design for a new dormer extension, access stair and some remodelling to the Ground Floor to improve the connection between the kitchen, dining and family living room. The large space on the second floor was earmarked for visitors and therefore split up into 3 areas that were aligned purposefully to the 3 dormers. The central dormer is a new bathroom accessed directly off the landing (from the main staircase). The two dormers either side feature two large guest rooms that share the central bathroom and allow a bit of separation from the first-floor bedrooms.
