Contractor: Scroxton Construction 
Structural Engineer: JPP 
Landscaping: P.Hook Landscapes 
Special Mention: Olney Kitchens

Our clients were looking to expand their traditional stone-built home and create more family-friendly living spaces. The existing property was characterised by poorly planned individual rooms, a lack of “flow”, and windows without a view or relationship to the garden. To incorporate spaces that facilitate modern family living, we sought to retain the property’s traditional charm while introducing contemporary elements that would seamlessly integrate with the existing structure.

Our clients were looking to expand their traditional stone-built home and create more family-friendly living spaces. The existing property was characterised by poorly planned individual rooms, a lack of “flow”, and windows without a view or relationship to the garden. To incorporate spaces that facilitate modern family living, we sought to retain the property’s traditional charm while introducing contemporary elements that would seamlessly integrate with the existing structure. 
The existing two-storey dwelling was situated at the end of a private driveway. The secluded plot sites an ‘L’ shaped property that lacks a meaningful connection between the living spaces and the rear garden. The western corner of the site remained unused and of low amenity value, while the key spaces inside the house, such as the kitchen/diner, had little to no view or access to the rest of the site. 
The new spaces seamlessly flow, creating a sense of togetherness that carefully hides the fact that the house has been extended, and promotes entertaining family and guests both inside and outside of the reimagined home. Connection with the external private spaces has been prioritised, with views of the newly landscaped garden offering a picturesque backdrop to the living and dining spaces. A home gym and sauna were connected efficiently to the northern end of the property. 
Our design successfully addressed our client’s desire for a more functional, connected and contemporary family home. The high-end design of this project demanded meticulous construction detailing to ensure a seamless flow between the old and the new spaces. The extension was completed in 2024, creating an elegant and visually appealing family home.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS 
The cost of a house extension varies depending on the project's size, design complexity, building specification, and site-specific parameters. At Scroxton & Scroxton, our integrated Architecture-Construction approach allows us to provide transparent, accurate cost guidance from the outset. During your initial consultation, we will review your objectives and property constraints to provide a tailored proposal that aligns your vision with a realistic investment budget. 
Some extensions can be completed under Permitted Development Rights, while others require planning permission. During the initial free consultation we will be able to assess your property and advise on the most suitable, efficient and robust route before preparing any required applications. 
Every house extension timeline is unique, largely determined by factors such as: complexity of the design, specific planning requirements for your property and the scale of the construction involved. While these factors do heavily dictate the timescale, our integrated Architecture + Construction model is designed to streamline every stage. By keeping architectural design, planning, and building services within one dedicated team, we significantly improve communication and efficiency- helping to reduce unnecessary delays and keep your project moving forward. 
For many homeowners, extending an existing property can be a more practical and cost-effective alternative to moving. An extension allows you to create additional space while remaining in a home and location you already love. During your consultation, we'll help you to assess whether extending or moving offers the best long-term value for your circumstances.
