Project Overview

Following the purchase of a property in a very poor state of our client, we undertook a comprehensive refurbishment to enhance its functionality, aesthetics, and energy efficiency. The project included a significant layout transformation, structural modifications, and modern upgrades to meet contemporary living standards.

Key Features & Upgrades

Layout Redesign for Improved Living Space

• An opening was created between the living room and reception room to establish an open-plan layout.
• The new kitchen was relocated into this open-plan space, maximizing usability and creating a more sociable environment.
• This allowed for the installation of a second bathroom in the area previously occupied by the old kitchen, adding convenience and value.

Enhanced Access to Outdoor Space

• A new access point was created leading to the rear garden, improving indoor-outdoor connectivity and increasing the property’s appeal.

Optimised Bedroom & Bathroom Configuration

• The existing bathroom was restructured into a smaller footprint, allowing for the enlargement of an adjacent bedroom, improving comfort and usability.

Complete Interior Refurbishment

• Installation of a brand-new, modern kitchen with high-quality fittings.
• Upgraded and modernised bathrooms to enhance functionality and aesthetics.
• New internal doors fitted throughout the property for a fresh and cohesive look.
• Full repainting of all rooms to create a bright and inviting atmosphere.
• Restoration of the original floorboards to retain character while improving durability.

Heating & Electrical Upgrades

• A new heating system was installed, including a high-efficiency combi boiler to improve energy performance and comfort.
• Full electrical rewiring was carried out to ensure compliance with modern safety standards.

Energy Efficiency Improvements

• As a result of the refurbishment, the property’s EPC rating was significantly improved, meeting the latest energy efficiency standards and reducing long-term running costs.

Outcome

This full-scale refurbishment not only revitalised a neglected property but also enhanced its practicality, comfort, and market value. By optimising the layout, upgrading essential systems, and incorporating energy-efficient solutions, the property was transformed into a highly desirable modern home.
