Wrap Around Extension The Woodlands, Lewisham, South East London

A wrap around extension on The Woodlands, Lewisham, London creating a larger kitchen diner, utility room and a bathroom.

Our surveyors identified that a wrap around extension was the perfect fit for our client on The Woodlands, Lewisham, London. A wrap around extension is a combination of a side return and rear extension. The purpose of this is to maximise the space and achieve an open plan kitchen and dining/family area with a strong connection to the garden. This type of extension can dramatically alter the feel and shape of your home.

The Crittall-style bi-fold doors are not only stylish and trendy but also allow for natural light to flood through into the dining area, all whilst providing easy access to the garden which is a staple benefit of a wrap around extension. The doors also let our clients control their own lighting, privacy, temperature, and ventilation.

The exposed black steel beams pop against the white room while opening the space allowing for a larger-looking room. Not only that, but they also add a hint of rusticity and warmth, making them a perfect addition for a cosy, welcoming and inviting kitchen space.

The modern, sleek design of the kitchen means the clients have a stylish space for storage. The client also chose to have the cooker, oven, and fridge inbuilt into the storage units to further utilise the free space. An alcove has been built above the cooker, allowing for an extractor fan to be installed while following the same colour and design of the storage units so it blends into the overall aesthetic.

The kitchen island echo’s the wooden design of the inbuilt fridge and oven with a white marble countertop. A kitchen island does not only add value to your property and gives it a look of luxury, but it also allows for extra storage, an eating area and more counter space. You can fit small appliances and work sinks into islands, depending on their size. Kitchen islands also encourage more social interactions, regardless of if you are eating, working, or cooking.

Mixing and matching textures, colours, and woods to create a layered effect is a great step in creating something rustic. The wooden features used in the kitchen area and bathroom door are not only durable choices but are perfect for adding character and packing personality into the design scheme. Paired alongside the exposed steel in the kitchen, it helps evoke a rustic feel, creating an informal space that feels relaxed, homely, and inviting.

Alongside the Crittall-style bi-fold doors, large Velux skylights have been installed without undermining the roof structure. Similarly, to the door, sunlight streams through to the dining area, increasing wellbeing, the temperature on colder days and even socialisation! Alongside this, the occupants also gain privacy and ventilation by having Velux skylight windows installed.
