Kitchen extensions · Whole-house refurbishment

A sunlit kitchen extension and a whole-house refresh in Balham

The owners of this terrace on Sistova Road wanted a kitchen that opened onto the garden and a home with real character on every floor. We extended to the rear, refurbished the house from top to bottom and added a few things you don't find in most terraces, including a roof terrace and a sauna.

The brief

More light and space at the back of the house, a kitchen built for cooking and hosting, and bold, personal finishes upstairs instead of a safe, neutral scheme.

What we did

  • Rear extension clad in black timber, with steel-framed glazed doors onto a new paved terrace
  • Two large frameless rooflights over the kitchen and dining area
  • Yellow Shaker kitchen with a dark island, white quartz worktop and seating for three
  • Built-in banquette dining with a herringbone oak floor running through
  • Shower room in pink striped tiles and a family bathroom with a freestanding roll-top bath
  • Bedrooms with plantation shutters, a restored fireplace and coloured ceilings
  • Top-floor access to a roof terrace, plus a timber home sauna
  • Living room in deep blue with a wood-burning stove

The result

The ground floor now runs from the front door to the garden in one bright space. Every room upstairs has its own colour and personality, held together by the same quality of joinery and finish.
