WHAT

Mansard Roof Extension

WHERE

Islington, London

WHEN

2015

Cloudesley Rd

A mansard roof was added to this 2 bedroom Grade II listed Georgian 3 storey house, adding a much needed 3rd bedroom and shower room. Surprisingly given the existing mansards along the street, a planning appeal had to be lodged against an initial refusal, which CRA lead, coordinating with a specialist planning consultant and engineer. The client had lovingly restored the house for the 30 years that they had owned it, and care was taken to ensure that the new bedroom and stair continued the period style and colours through into the new space.
