Keep the character
The gable and bay windows give the frontage its identity. The finished exterior pairs these features with a renewed entrance and a considered approach to the house.

LONGSIGHT ROAD · HOLCOMBE BROOK, BURY
1920s character.
A new chapter.
A HOME transformation of a 1920s property. These real before-and-after photographs show how a considered approach can respect a home’s character while changing the way it presents itself to the street and garden.
The front elevation
The distinctive gable and bay windows remain central to the character of this 1920s home. The finished frontage brings together a lighter exterior, a renewed entrance and a landscaped approach.
The rear elevation & garden
Compare the original rear elevation with the finished home: larger areas of glazing, a coordinated roofline and a broad terrace connect the house with its garden.
INSIDE LONGSIGHT ROAD
Character in every room.
The finished interiors combine open kitchen and dining space, quieter rooms and carefully considered bathroom details.
Photographs show the same property at different stages and from slightly different viewpoints.

Larger glazed openings and a broad terrace make the garden part of the view from the house. The rear elevation and landscaping work together.
Give each room a purpose
A sociable kitchen and dining space sits alongside quieter rooms. Good space planning makes room for different activities.
