Alterations and Extension to End Terrace
      House, Mafeking Terrace, Neilston

A seemingly modest client brief sought to increase the number of bedrooms in this property by one to create a three bed house and increase the amount of storage space by introducing a utility room on the ground floor. Due to the tight site, however, and the presence of an existing ground floor extension there was not much room in which to find this additional accommodation. After careful consideration of the brief and site constraints Munro Associates worked out a sympathetic scheme which saw the dormers in the roof space enlarged and the accommodation on the first floor rearranged to create a new bathroom and three bedrooms with built in wardrobes, with the master bedroom also included a new en-suite. A new porch to the front of the house created a more visible entrance to the house and also allowed the creation of a small utility/boot room to achieve the client's aim of getting further storage within the house. All external finishes and details were designed to be sympathetic to the existing house and locality and the clients were able to stay in the house during the construction of the additional accommodation.
