This link extension and outbuilding are integral to the transformation of a traditional cottage in Penn, designed to enhance both functionality and aesthetics. The project aimed to incorporate an underused garage within the main house’s footprint, creating a spacious and light-filled kitchen-diner featuring a striking gable glass façade facing the street. In addition, a purpose-built outbuilding to the rear provides a versatile home office and gym space, thoughtfully designed to complement the surrounding greenery. Locally sourced materials, including reclaimed brick and flint, were carefully selected to ensure the new additions blend seamlessly with the cottage’s historic character and natural setting.
