TYNEMOUTH
NORTH TYNESIDE
DOMESTIC EXTENSION
Adding a touch of the contemporary to this 1930’s semi-detached in Tynemouth!
​
We have taken what was a 1930’s semi-detached with no links to the garden and transformed it with use of a contemporary extension, replacing a run-down conservatory, along with a matching dormer to the roof.
​
The extension opens up the back of the house and provides a generous open-plan kitchen-diner-lounge space that opens up onto the newly landscaped garden.
​
Alterations throughout the rest of the property make it work better for the family, including a ground floor wet-room for showering after a long day at the beach!
