Carlisle Avenue
St Albans
This beautiful period home in the heart of St Albans gains plenty more space for our client’s growing family.
A newly-excavated basement runs the full length of the property, blending seamlessly with the existing house. Sympathetic renovation ensures new space complements the existing building’s character, and that it complies with St Albans’ stringent conservation area rules.
To create an additional 120m² of space, we excavated beneath the original house and added a single-storey rear extension. The property is now a 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom home with front and rear light-wells adding natural daylight to the new floor.
The basement has created space for a generous double bedroom, bathroom, utility room, and a substantial multi-use space which the client uses as a second living area, home office, playroom, and gym. On the ground floor the property now has a brand-new open plan kitchen and dining area, opening on to the rear garden.
