Structural Alterations: Removed internal walls and installed structural steel supports to open up the ground floor layout, providing a seamless connection between spaces.
Kitchen Installation: Fitted a bespoke kitchen with high-quality cabinetry, integrated appliances, and a central island, tailored to the client's specifications.
Bathroom Renovation: Upgraded the ground floor bathroom with contemporary fixtures, tiling, and improved plumbing systems.
Flooring and Finishes: Installed engineered oak flooring throughout the ground floor and applied fresh, neutral paint tones to enhance natural light.
Lighting and Electrical: Upgraded the electrical system, including the installation of recessed lighting and modern switches and sockets.
Exterior Works: Improved the rear façade with new sliding doors, providing direct access to the garden and enhancing indoor-outdoor living.
