Single Storey Rear & Garage Extension in Pontefract – Open Plan Kitchen Transformation
This project involved a single storey rear extension combined with a garage extension and conversion in Pontefract, creating one large continuous living space at the back of the home.
Delivered as a design and build project, the drawings and planning were completed by Enhanced Building Plans before construction began.
The main objective was to completely transform the layout of the property by creating a large open plan kitchen with a pantry and utility room, while also extending and converting the existing garage. This additional space allowed the new layout to include a small dining area, snug, and family play space, all connected to the main kitchen area.
Construction began in August and was completed in February, resulting in a spacious modern living area designed for family life and entertaining.
Key Features Included
These changes created a bright and flexible living space that significantly improves how the ground floor of the home is used.
Technical Details
During the Build
The gallery below shows the extension while work was underway.
The project involved constructing the rear extension, extending the garage, and carrying out the structural alterations needed to connect the new spaces together. As the build progressed, the internal knock-through created the large open plan kitchen area while the additional garage space allowed room for a dining area, snug and play space.
