A stones throw from Durham Downs, Brownfield Green have extensively renovated this tired Victorian villa into a bright and airy family home. Using clever design and detailing, we were able to reconfigure the ground floor to completely open up the kitchen and living area, creating a great space with direct access to the garden. The basement was completely reconfigured to create a self contained one bedroomed flat with independent access, as well as a huge utility and storage area accessed from the main house.  Upstairs, new bathrooms and complete redecoration completed the look.

The challenge with these grand townhouses is reimagining the layout to suit modern open plan family living.
