Completed Project

Glencairn Road Rear Extension

A bright and contemporary open-plan kitchen, dining and living space with a spacious layout, steel-look glazing and large areas of natural light creating a modern and airy feel throughout.

Project Overview

A contemporary extension with character, warmth and practical family living.

This project completely opened up the rear of the house to create a large kitchen, dining and living space that feels bright, modern and practical for everyday family life. Rooflights above the extension bring in plenty of natural light, helping the whole space feel open and airy throughout the day.

The finished design combines clean modern details with warmer touches to make the space feel comfortable and lived in. Black-framed glazing, herringbone flooring, timber panelling and brass finishes all work together to give the extension a contemporary feel without feeling too stark or overly polished.

Design Highlights

Natural Light

Multiple rooflights and full-width glazing help brighten the new living space throughout the day.

Open Plan Living

The kitchen, dining and lounge areas flow together while still feeling carefully zoned.

Character Finishes

Timber slats, exposed steel and herringbone flooring give the project a distinctive completed look.

Before Photos

Before the extension

The original property had a more enclosed rear arrangement, with older glazing and a smaller connection to the garden. These site photos show the starting point before the new extension works were completed.

Before

Existing rear walls, older doors and a darker internal layout limited the amount of light and open-plan living space.

After

The completed extension introduced rooflights, full-width steel-look glazing and a generous kitchen, dining and seating area.
