MODERN EXTENSION TO A TRADITIONAL FARM HOUSE
Angus Extension (Dickmontlaw)
Location: Arbroath
Status: Completed 2022
The original layout was typical of a traditional farm building and was extended previously to provide an open planned kitchen and dining space.
On this occasion an existing first floor conservatory room was removed and replaced with a similar sized space on the ground floor. The generously glazed extension forms a new sunroom overlooking the rear garden and beyond to rural countryside. The existing dining room window was removed to provide a flowing connection from the kitchen to the sunroom via the existing dining room.
The large panes of glazing, including the corner windows, emphasise the surrounding fields and countryside.
Sandstone and painted grey timber were used to continue the character of the existing building and local vernacular.
