Completion of South Downs Pool Extension

Witcher Crawford has completed a contemporary single-storey extension and refurbishment to a property in the South Downs National Park.

Adding to a portfolio of accessibility-focussed projects, the scheme adds much-needed physiotherapy and hydrotherapy facilities, and a comprehensive retrofit of the existing property to improve wheelchair access for the independent living of a disabled user.

The extension’s design adopts a utilitarian barn aesthetic, blending the functional requirements of the brief with a light-touch approach that references the rural character of the surrounding area, and as a result, achieving unanimous planning approval from the National Park Authority.

Completion of Accessible Hampshire Extension

Witcher Crawford have recently completed this accessible extension in Southern Hampshire.

The single-storey addition provides a hydrotherapy treatment pool and frees up the plan of the existing living areas to create a wheelchair-friendly space.   The exterior has been designed delicately to complement the existing house, but with a contemporary edge - with an overhanging roof, and a fresh material palette of zinc with timber shading louvres.

Large-format glazing gives over to a newly landscaped garden, including play facilities and sensory planting.   This home successfully reflects our depth of experience developed across a whole range of projects focussed on accessibility, providing bespoke design solutions and tailor-made facilities for clients with disabilities.

Planning Granted for Alresford Extension

Our sensitively designed extension in Alresford has recently been granted planning approval. The extension, and internal reconfigurations, will create a new, open plan kitchen/dining area, with large-format glazing providing generous views into the garden and an increased quality of natural light to the interior. The proposals will upgrade existing service infrastructure and also include a new thermally efficient replacement orangery, creating a more comfortable and energy efficient home for a growing family.


The design proposals have been carefully designed to complement the traditional late-Victorian features of the existing house, using a matching material palette and detailing of the period to maintain the character of the building and local area.
