unusually large and private outside space, quietly positionedbehind the housing line and with a charming line of site tothe towering, ornate windows of the neighbouring church.

Inside, the existing house has been completely renovated tocreate a series of wonderfully serene and sensitivelyfinished contemporary spaces. On the ground floor is anopen-plan living and dining room, with oak-parquet flooringunderfoot and a pair of full-height windows to the garden.Upstairs there are two bedrooms and a family bathroom.

Within the design, there is relatively little change to theexisting house, with the exception of a new utility room.

A new entrance from the driveway would be created,leading to an entrance hall and shower room/guest WC tothe left. To the right this would lead into the existingbuilding, and straight ahead to the garden and a new groundfloor bedroom with views to planting outisde.

The heart of the extension would be a large kitchen anddining room, connected to the existing living room.Importantly, this allows all of the new ground-floor spacesto open completely to the garden, which is a perfectsuntrap. There are two further small spaces at the end ofthe plot which could be used for storage and as a homeoffice.

Planning for the scheme was granted in March 2020. A fullset of the plans can be found on the Southwark Councilplanning portal under the reference number 20/AP/0146and listed building consent 20/AP/0147.
