Project Description: Family Home Refurbishment, Loft Conversion & Extension, Progress Estate, Eltham, London

Location: Eltham, London – Progress Estate (Conservation Area with Article 4 Direction)

Project Overview:

This project involved a full house refurbishment, comprehensive loft conversion, and a rear extension of an end-of-terraced family home within the historic Progress Estate. Originally built around a large green, the property’s compact internal configuration no longer met the demands of a rapidly growing family. The transformation included converting the existing loft space into functional living areas, featuring cleverly positioned roof lights and walk-on glazing to bring abundant natural daylight into the entrance hallway. The design seamlessly blends modern upgrades with the traditional character of the home, ensuring a spacious and welcoming environment.

Scope of Work:

- Full House Refurbishment: Complete overhaul of the internal layout to enhance space, functionality, and circulation throughout the home.

- Loft Conversion: Converted the existing loft into additional living space, incorporating strategically placed roof lights and walk-on glazing to channel natural light into the entrance hallway and adjoining areas.

- Rear Extension: Extended the property at the rear to include a new kitchen and family area, along with a utility room, WC, and additional storage, all designed to support modern family living.

- Enhanced Entrance: Introduced a new porch and expanded entrance lobby to create a more spacious and inviting welcome area, further amplified by the natural daylight from the loft conversion.

- Connection to the Garden: Integrated glazed folding doors, three large glass roof lights, and wrap-around timber decking to establish a seamless indoor-outdoor flow and improved garden access.

Outcome:

The extensive refurbishment, loft conversion, and rear extension have transformed this traditional family home into a bright, modern residence that effectively meets the evolving needs of a growing family. The innovative integration of natural daylight and the enhanced connection to outdoor spaces have not only improved functionality and comfort but also significantly increased the property’s overall value.
