Ravelston Dykes

 A semi detached two storey house located within the Ravelston area in North West Edinburgh, with a sloping rear garden.

We created a large open plan kitchen family room by removing four stores as well as opening up the kitchen and rear sitting room. Once you enter the house, double glazed doors from the existing hall to the new kitchen area allow the garden view to be seen.

A single storey rectangular extension was created to the rear which projects into the garden with 180 degree views to the North. The elevated position of the garden room enhances the panoramic view and provides additional privacy. The lightweight zinc roof is supported by the timber frame and cantilevers in both corners to add to the openness. The window cill wraps down to provide a full height glazed corner which connects into the terrace area.

Additional work was carried out in the second floor to create an ensuite and refurbish the existing bedrooms.
