The refurbishment and adaptation of a 1960s dormer bungalow involved significant upgrades to enhance both functionality and accessibility.
The project began with the replacement of a dilapidated dormer and the addition of a new dormer at the rear of the property, increasing usable space and improving the overall aesthetic.
A single-story rear extension and a standalone extension were constructed, the latter housing a new kitchen and medical storage area. The kitchen installations were modernized to meet the needs of the residents, while an adapted wet room was created for accessibility. The installation of a H-frame hoist system ensured seamless movement between the living areas and the wet room. Level access was carefully integrated from the interior to the exterior, allowing for easy transitions between indoor and outdoor spaces.
The property was equipped with environmental controls and home automation systems, providing advanced management of the home's features and enhancing the comfort and convenience of its residents.
Specialist flooring was installed throughout to meet accessibility needs and improve safety.
The refurbishment included the installation of a new central heating and hot water system, Air conditioning, a full new electrical system, and CCTV for enhanced security.
An external canopy was added to link the standalone single-story extension, ensuring sheltered access for carers between buildings.
This comprehensive adaptation transformed the bungalow into a modern, accessible, and comfortable home tailored to the specific needs of its occupants.
