This 360cm wide Victorian terrace was reconfigured to maximise space, without extending the footprint and here's the result
"Cambridge is full of these types of terraced properties. So, it would be a stretch to say that this one had unique potential that I hadn't seen elsewhere. However, the orientation really helped - we knew we could have morning light in the main bedroom and afternoon light in the west-facing garden."
"Rather than chasing additional square footage, David focused on reconfiguring the interior to maximise space and improve natural light."
"The construction garden elevation was reshaped with a timber-framed zinc-covered roof, ensuring a modern finish while complying with conservation area restrictions."
"The project was undertaken in phases from spring 2013 to December 2020, reflecting a strategic approach to managing budget and construction progress."
David and Jess renovated a Victorian terraced house in Cambridge, focusing on reconfiguring the interior rather than expanding outward. With a width of just 3.6m, the house had a challenging layout but offered potential due to its orientation for natural light. Securing planning permission in a conservation area proved straightforward, allowing alterations to improve light and space. The renovation took place in phases from spring 2013 to December 2020, with a total cost of £114,000 and an increase in property value to around £540,000.
