Wrap Around Kitchen Extension Hampton, Belgrade Road

The Build
Properties in London can be narrow, with limited space for the property to gain width. The wrap around extension is a great way to add width to your property, by using any lost space down the side of the house. It is a popular choice of extension in South London, with many projects being completed in the area over the past couple of years. The space available for this side extension was larger than most, creating a wide array of design options for our clients.

An Open-Plan Approach
The open-plan kitchen has consistently been a popular choice when clients have approached us for kitchen extensions. By having the continuation of the kitchen into a dining or living space, you can make your house seem open and sociable. This is a fitting choice for busy London families, when long work hours limit the amount of family time available to working professionals. With an open-plan kitchen extension, family can be involved with the process of making dinner in the evenings, maximising the time available to you.

This build has taken open-plan one step further, with large glass windows and door to the rear of the property. Not only does this bring more light into the room, but the black outline of the glass creates a picture-perfect frame for the outside space, almost making it seem like an art installation within the home. It is a beautiful choice for the house, with the flowers and houseplants in the kitchen linking to the bold green colours of the garden.

Practicality
This kitchen is also a great testament to how your space can be elegant and functional. The vast amounts of surface space in the kitchen makes it perfect for busy families, with plenty of space when cooking or working in the kitchen. By keeping the surface tops brightly lit with the skylights, and with pale marble countertops, the kitchen is bright and airy instead of seeming large and empty.

Our clients chose parquet flooring to add texture to the room, with simple and bold colours used on the furnishings. This choice of flooring is great for busy families, as any scuff marks are easily hidden, and the floor is a lot easier to keep clean than if wooden floorboards were used.

Finishing Touches
This project was beautifully designed with stand-out features. The skylights on the side extension cast light onto the stunning kitchen island, which has been finished with a pale marble countertop. This contrasts against the bold blue of the island base and kitchen cabinets, creating a bold and out-spoken central feature. Our clients have used pale pink kitchen stools to balance out the heavy colours of the cabinets, with the gold rim of the chairs making this kitchen look luxurious.

These little touches can make the difference between an elegant kitchen and a kitchen which lacks the wow-factor. The traditional golden brass theme on the drawer handles and taps, balances out the bold blue and pale colours, making this kitchen seem royal in its finish.
