Completed Home
The completed home delivers bright, open-plan living spaces that feel connected to the surrounding coastal setting. Large glazed openings, carefully selected materials and a comprehensive energy upgrade create a comfortable, modern home designed for family life.
Design & Plans
Concept
The design reimagines the existing property through a carefully planned extension and internal reconfiguration, creating generous family living spaces and flexible additional accommodation.
Planning
The proposal was developed to maximise natural light, improve the relationship with the rear garden and integrate a self-contained granny flat while remaining sympathetic to the surrounding residential setting.
Detailing
A refined palette of white render, natural slate roofing and contemporary glazing gives the home a clean, modern appearance, complemented by carefully positioned windows and a feature glazed balcony.
The Journey
Mount Prospect was designed to transform an existing house into a contemporary family home that better reflects the needs of modern living. Through a carefully considered extension and complete internal reconfiguration, the project introduces spacious open-plan living areas, improved natural light and stronger connections between the home and its landscaped gardens.
Alongside the main residence, the design incorporates a self-contained one-bedroom granny flat, providing flexible accommodation for extended family while maintaining privacy and independence. Combined with a comprehensive energy upgrade, the completed project delivers a comfortable, sustainable and adaptable home designed for long-term family living.
