The long, narrow footprint of the original home has been transformed into an open-plan layout.

Unlike the building there before, the new home is made from a locally sourced red brick, in keeping with the appearance of the Conservation Area.

The entire building sits atop a concrete plinth, which acts as a defence against flooding. The use of natural materials and colours aid with the home blending into the surrounding area and not affecting the character.

The first floor elevation, visible over the historic hedge, will accommodate a perforated brick corner to the east to help reduce the appearance of mass to the approaching elevation.

Corner opening sliding glass doors form entire glass walls which can be pushed aside to completely open up the rear living space, creating one large indoor-outdoor area.

The external raised balcony space is protected by a frameless glass balustrade, which causes minimal disruption to the views or influx of natural light.

The abundance of glazing used in the home provides a diffused light to the interior spaces, including the entrance space.

The building has been designed to reach code level 4 under the Code for Sustainable Homes criteria.
