Buttermere Close
Cockermouth, Cumbria
Buttermere Close is a 230 sqm two-storey, detached dwelling in a town near the Lake District National Park. The existing brick and white-render building is located on the eastern edge of town with a garden that faces south with views over pasture land.
The clients wished to increase the overall internal floor area of their current dwelling, as well as ameliorate some of the ground floor configuration.
The final design comprises a south-facing extension that opens out into the garden, a timber-clad first-floor extension, and a loft conversion with two large dormers that draw in natural light.
