Rear Extension, Wigan Lane

Client: Domestic
Project Type: Rear Extension

Project Overview

Our client loved their family home but felt the existing kitchen and dining area lacked the open space needed for practical, everyday use. The goal was to enhance functionality and create a seamless, sociable environment that blended comfort with contemporary living.

The project involved extending and integrating an existing single-storey rear extension with the garage. This transformation introduced a spacious sitting/family area and a convenient WC while reconfiguring the kitchen and dining space to optimise its potential as a vibrant entertaining hub.

Challenges & Solutions
Since the extension involved modifying an existing structure and incorporating the garage, planning permission was required. The proposal faced several objections, making it essential to liaise closely with local authorities. By addressing concerns strategically and refining the design, we secured planning approval, ensuring the project aligned with both regulations and the client’s vision.

Outcome
The completed project delivered a modern, open-plan living space that perfectly balances style and functionality. The integration of the garage allowed for a cohesive flow between zones, while the improved kitchen and dining area now serve as a dynamic space for family life and entertaining. The client was thrilled with the transformation, which maximised the home’s usability and enhanced its overall aesthetic.
