Abstract
- Emily and Jack purchased an east London Victorian terrace and decided to extend and renovate it to meet their modern living needs. They spent a year living in the house before starting the construction work, which included a rear extension and a loft conversion. They worked with an architect and builder to create a design that would modernize the house and improve its layout. The construction work took seven months, and the couple was involved in the process to keep costs down. They used sustainable materials and recycled materials from the house where possible. The project is considered ongoing, with future plans to insulate the floorboards and potentially install solar panels and an air source heat pump. The renovation resulted in a brighter and more open home that aligns with the couple's vision of a modern and functional space. [Extracted from the article]
