Our clients in Herne Bay wanted to exploit the sea view to the rear from their new house by converting the roofspace and creating a balcony at that level and they also needed to update the existing building. We devised a scheme which enables light to flood down the staircase right to the ground floor and create a wide balcony at roof level with stunning views toward Reculver, without needing planning permission.
The scheme also involves rearranging one side of the house to create a new large kitchen, as well as opening up the staircase to create a sense of space and bring light into the hallway. General refurbishment was also needed to upgrade the existing house and to improve the fire safety standards necessary to prepare it for the loft conversion.
