The clients, Matt and Carolyn, came to us with this Grade II-listed Georgian farmhouse in Leicestershire that was rich in character, but showing signs of years of neglect. Their ambition was to modernise, renovate and extend it while preserving the original character and history.
Rather than over-extending, we focused on strategic interventions: restoring original fabric, selectively removing insensitive additions, and weaving new elements where we were allowed. We then worked with joiners and craftsmen to create a contemporary link extension between the original living rooms and the renovated stables.
