The classic ‘Suburb’ house, built in 1912 “in the style of Voysey” set just below Lutyens Grade 1 Listed St Jude-on-the-Hill Church, has been revitalised.
Returning clients, this historic residence has been given a new lease of life by Square Feet Architects. Seeking additional space for their growing roster of grandchildren, the couple envisioned a home that seamlessly blends classic charm with modern functionality, ensuring it becomes a welcoming space for family gatherings and entertaining friends.
Masterfully reconfiguredm, the house to offer three-dimensional, light-filled spaces. The interiors, crafted with Umber, terrazzo, and stone, strike a perfect balance between innovation and warmth. Williams' expertise brings to life an environment conducive to both grand celebrations and cozy nights.
The sustainability ethos embedded in this project is evident in the upgraded insulated and airtight retrofit envelope. The house boasts air source heat pumps, smart home technology, and energy- efficient LED lighting. This commitment to eco-friendly design ensures the residence not only stands the test of time but also minimizes its environmental footprint.
To complement the interior transformation, the outdoor spaces have been meticulously reimagined. The result is a seasonal and colourful oasis that harmonizes with the historic Garden Suburb while providing a picturesque backdrop for the revitalized home.
