Glengarry House

An old colonial feel was the design inspiration behind the work on this Victorian villa.

As part of a comprehensive renovation in 1997, we designed a verandah for this 1898 Victorian villa to replace it's dilapidated conservatory. The verandah with a sweeping roof complimented the lush architectural planting in the garden, whilst providing outdoor space for dining and relaxing, sheltered from the sun and rain.

In 2003 we designed a single and two storey extension to the north side of the house. This addition created a large garden room, pantry, utility and cloakroom on the ground floor. On the first floor a luxurious ensuite bathroom and dressing room were formed.

Whilst the house is not listed, we gave the detailing of this historic home as much attention as if it were. As a result the work was designed to blend seamlessly with the original house and incorporated, imperial brickwork, salvaged clay tiles, stone flooring and bespoke joinery.
