This Georgian townhouse has been home to the same family for 10 years, so reinventing its style and structure has been a slow-burner, rather than a rush-in-and-rip-out project.

Robert Dye Architects created this double-height extension at the back, which added a study to the higher level and a large kitchen-diner at garden level. A set of roof lights and subtle vertical openings between levels allow a free flow of light, so the two floors feel connected.

LANDING

An array of loved objects, books and art inject personality to the landing on the top floor.

MASTER BATHROOM

The master bathroom is the place to relax at the end of a long day. The bath came with the house, but the walk-in shower was tucked in later, enabling a quicker wash-and-go in the morning.
