Work undertaken

Nestled on the edge of Tonbridge, in the beautiful county of Kent, is our lovely client’s four bedroom, two bathroom home. Already an impressive property, our client wanted a dream two story extension to create the perfect family home. Working in collaboration with Jude and the team at Waterlake Designs Architects and Planners, the Canterwood team followed the architectural drawings with ease. The team have worked carefully to ensure the merge of the original house and new extension blends seamlessly, and the clients careful and tasteful eye is making the interior changes look fabulous. In order for the blend from old to new on the inside to be seamless, Waterlake Designs Architects and Planners had a contact who shipped old oak from France to be used as beams on the low ceilings. There was also lots of alterations and reuse of old timbers for this project. The team had to add in a number of timber joists in order to secure the extension. Canterwood joinery based in Poland supplied a bespoke shaker kitchen designed to optimise the available space. Opting for an integrated wine cooler, storage space and bifold doors, Canterwood were able to produce a completely transformed space from the inside to out. The team also built a utility room for this busy family home. The upstairs extension was complete with a balcony and the slates on the roof were matched to the already existing roof.
