Witcher Crawford have completed a well-crafted, minimalist extension in the Winchester Conservation Area. The scheme is an extension to an existing Victorian terrace. Being positioned on such a sensitive site required a strong appraisal of the building's context to ensure any intervention was subtle when viewed from its surroundings, whilst simultaneously providing a high-quality and spacious extension to meet the needs of a modern family.

The rear zinc extension provides much needed space in the form of an extended and open-plan kitchen-diner, providing an extensive view into the rear garden whilst providing a greater quality of natural light to the space, with large format glazing and a rooflight. A new attic dormer also accommodates a new ensuite bathroom to equip the attic bedroom with independent sanitary facilities.

Extensive planning research was undertaken which identified similar alterations amongst neighbouring properties, informing an approach which was sensible and in keeping with the surrounding terraces.
