During the Summer of 2014, architect, Matt Ball was commissioned to create asubstantial home on this site. The brief required a total reconfiguration of the original property plus the integration of a highly contemporary new extension, with a landscaped garden and patio.

The design Matt produced is a beautifully functional family home that measuresapproximately 1940 Square Feet over two floors, with parking for four cars.

If purchased in the early stages of the redevelopment, the new owners will be able to determine whether the final layout contains 4 or 5 bedrooms. The purchaser will also be able to add their own personal touches to the house by making decisions regardingthe bespoke kitchen, the fitted appliances for the kitchen, the interior floor and wallfinishes, plus the sanitary ware.

Let�’s take a quick tour�… Access to the front of No 54 (the south side of the house) is via a private lane that leads from Linden Gardens and takes you to a drive-in parking area (for two cars), a fully land-scaped garden and paved patio. Two more parking spaces are available via Darlington Road.

Below is an illustration that shows how the front of the house appears from theprivate lane.

The front door, shown in this illustrationtakes you directly into the fitted kitchen. The full height bifold doors, that feature inthis west-facing elevation, create a wall of light for the generous kitchen/dining area. The five panels on the right-side of thedrawing concertina open so that the house�’sliving accommodation seamlessly mergesinto the garden.

To gain extra light in the dining area, with its cathedral-style roof, are two south-facingwindows that compliment the larger window-doors. Additionally, two Velux roof lightsallow morning light into the room.
