Project History: Blackstone Architects were commissioned to enlarge the existing bungalow consisting of a dormer tired in appearance, out of character and providing limited and tight accommodation.
The project has posed many challenges to produce a design that balances the clients accommodation needs whilst respecting the moated site and Area of Special Environmental Quality context.
The rear elevation was designed to maximise the bedroom views of this moat without comprising overlooking of rear gardens.
Dormers are the most common type of loft conversion, usually built without the need for planning permission.
There's very little change to the look of the property at the front and an impressive outlook to the rear.

Projecting vertically from the plane of a sloped roof, a front or rear dormer loft conversion can transform a previously wasted attic room in your home into a fantastic new and usable loft space.
The main reason our clients opt for these types of attic renovations and loft conversions are because the new loft room can create a lot of valuable headroom and floor space lit up with natural exterior lighting.
Fortunately with dormer loft conversions and loft construction, they can generally be completed without the need for planning permission.

Dormer loft conversions are versatile and give much more light to your new room, thanks to the installation of traditional dormer windows.
As the examples below depict, dormers are constructed by adding a vertical extension to the existing sloping roof of the house.
This means that the walls in a dormer loft conversion are vertical and the ceiling is horizontal, resulting in a real feeling of space.
It is not surprising then that the dormer loft conversion remains a very popular choice for our customers.
Maximum space is added to your home internally and, as these images show, externally our expert team of tradesmen will seamlessly blend the dormer loft conversion with the exiting exterior of you home.

The Dormer loft conversion is typically the most common in style when it comes to renovating your loft space.
The main reason for this is because the Dormer is simply an extension to your existing roof, making them (usually) a quicker turnaround compared to other types of loft.
The Dormer also creates much more additional floor and head space within the loft, generally becoming the largest room within your home.
This type of conversion allows for the interior of the room to have vertically straight walls and a horizontal ceiling, in contrast to the slanted walls you might normally associate with loft conversions.
