The small, early-Victorian two-up two-down terrace had a DIY rear extension replaced with a new, flat-roof extension housing open plan kitchen/dining area. Stage I - a new ground floor extension replaced the only bathroom with a separate shower and toilet, accessed from a passage between the original house and the new rear extension. Some space was left for a new stair to replace the existing, inconvenient stairs in the living room. 

​

Stage II added the first floor extension on the top of the ground floor extension. Three large roof lights were added: to the old rear bedroom, over the new bathroom and new stairs. The new rear bedroom has an access to a terrace - the unbuilt part of flat roof of the ground floor extension. A large roof light over the stairs lights up the previously dark centre of the ground floor.
