New Family Home, Preston

Under permitted development, we obtained planning permission to convert an existing agricultural barn, then secured full planning consent for a new house on the site in Preston, Kent. The property has been built to an exceptional standard of thermal performance, featuring an air source heat pump and roof‑mounted solar panels to provide efficient, low‑carbon heating and energy.

Kitchen Extension to Grade II Listed House

This small Oak frame extension to a Grade II Listed house transforms the Kitchen-Dining room, which now opens up to the garden and landscape beyond. Crittal-style windows and doors provide a touch of modern elegance, complimenting the traditional design.

Barn Conversion

Under permitted development legislation, we secured approval to convert an existing agricultural barn into four distinctive homes. The original timber structure has been carefully preserved, allowing its character to be experienced throughout each property. The main living spaces rise to the full height of the barn, creating generous, light‑filled interiors, while the bedrooms are illuminated by rooflights that bring in soft, natural daylight from above.

Small Barn Conversion

An unused outbuilding has been sensitively converted to create a comfortable annexe for elderly relatives, allowing them to live independently while remaining close to the family home. The original timber stable structure has been left exposed, bringing warmth and natural texture to the interior and preserving the building’s rural character.

Refurbishment of Grade II Listed Chapel

The Chapel, which had long been used for storing apples and was in disrepair, has been thoughtfully restored and brought back to life. The clients were committed to using natural, sustainable materials and the building needed to breathe, so the envelope was upgraded with wood‑fibre and sheep’s‑wool insulation. Existing finishes and fittings were repaired, complemented by new windows and the reinstatement of the original wood panelling. The result is a unique, characterful space that is perfect for entertaining family and friends!

Single storey side & rear extension

A glazed side extension to the existing kitchen creates a bright and spacious kitchen–dining area with views over the garden. At the rear of the house, a further extension provides a comfortable, accessible ground‑floor guest room with its own en‑suite. The clients are a pleasure to work with, and we are now collaborating on our eighth project together.
