Friars Avenue

Introduction

Friars Avenue comprises of a two-storey rear and side extension to a semi-detached family home in Whetstone, London. The client’s found themselves in a common position of having separate living and dining spaces and a small kitchen, all disconnected from one another.

The brief was to extend to the rear and side and remodel the rear of the property to create a large open plan kitchen, living and dining space. The existing garage to the rear allowed us to create an L-shaped extension on the ground floor, with dual-aspect bi-folding doors out onto a private terrace area. An additional first floor bedroom and bathroom were required to cater for the young, growing family’s needs.
