Light filled garden room complements Grade II listed home

As Emma and Daniel were so keen to flood their new multi-purpose space with as much natural light as possible they knew glazing would feature prominently. Aside from the garden room’s sturdy oak frame, its three exterior walls are made up of full-length panels of face glazing, a system that affords flexibility while maintaining an airtight security blanket. Face glazing makes window frames unnecessary; in this case, it provides uninterrupted views over their back garden.

Emma and Daniel wisely chose to replace the two former solid doors from the kitchen and study with fully glazed options. This allows the light to breathe new life into other areas of their home, as it suffuses much of the ground floor. The new double doors at the back also give the family easy access between the 5.5m x 6.0m extension and their garden. This means those invited to summer night gatherings can flow effortlessly in and out of the new space. On cooler nights, the double doors shut out the elements while the underfloor heating provides all the warmth you could possibly need.

“We now have a fabulous addition to our beautiful house. We hope, like the house itself, it will be enjoyed by generations to come. It’s exceeded our expectations and we absolutely love the space – as have all those we’ve invited round since it was completed,” says Emma.
