When Chesney's were approached to design and manufacture a limestone cantilevered staircase for the entrance hall of a new English country house, the brief was to create a focal point that was both graceful and impressive. We suggested a smooth soffit tread design which would lend itself well to a plain material such as limestone and would create a beautiful continuous curve to the underside of the staircase that could be appreciated from the Entrance Hall below.

This project was the complete renovation of a 3,500 square foot home. Through a horizontal addition and extensive subterranean excavation, an additional 4,000 square feet were added to the residence. Working to bring the beauty of the surrounding landscape into the home, large panels of glazing were used for much of the homes exterior, while an open floor plan compliments the space creating a bright and natural feel within the home. The staircase that became a center piece of the home’s interior uses cantilever wood treads, glass guardrails and walls with open risers to maintain key lines of sight through the home. Steel columns and exposed black trusses provide an enriching contrast to the rich wood tones in the ceiling.

Upstairs, there are a total of four separate sleeping chambers. The two bedrooms above the master suite share a bathroom, while the third bedroom to the rear features its own en suite.
