Millswood

Renovation

Project Overview

Richard and Ann Sibly approached Housemaster Homes to design and construct an extension for their 1920’s bungalow in Millswood. The home, still in its original condition, needed to be enlarged to better accommodate their growing family. The goal was to blend modern functionality with the home’s classic character while maximising living space and practicality.

The Process

The project began with a thorough consultation to understand Richard and Ann’s needs and preferences. The design phase focused on creating a seamless extension that complemented the home’s original architecture while introducing modern features. During construction, careful attention was given to maintaining the character of the bungalow while ensuring the new additions provided contemporary comfort and space.

Features and Solutions

The design incorporated key extensions and upgrades to enhance the home’s functionality and family-friendly layout:

Open-Plan Living: A spacious new living area was designed to connect with the kitchen and dining space, promoting a sense of openness and flow.

Modern Kitchen: A contemporary kitchen was installed, offering ample workspace and storage while integrating seamlessly with the living and dining areas.

Additional Bedroom: An extra bedroom was added to accommodate the family’s growing needs, ensuring comfort and privacy.

Double Garage: A new double garage provided secure parking and additional storage, enhancing the home’s practicality and value.

The Outcome

The completed project delivered a beautifully extended home that meets the needs of Richard and Ann’s family while preserving the charm of the original bungalow. The open-plan design creates a light-filled, welcoming space perfect for everyday living and entertaining.

The new bedroom and garage add both functionality and convenience, making the home more versatile and future-proof. Richard and Ann were thrilled with the transformation, which successfully balanced modern living with the character of their heritage property.
