Private House Extension in Buckinghamshire
The private house extension by Studio AVC transforms a family home in Amersham, Buckinghamshire. The project adds a rear ground-floor extension to create a brighter kitchen and dining space. It improves the layout, increases natural light, and connects the house with the garden.
Private House Extension Adding Light and Space
The rear extension enlarges the ground floor and opens the living area to the garden. Full-height sliding glass doors bring in sunlight and garden views. As a result, the interior feels wider, warmer, and more inviting.
Moreover, the open layout encourages family interaction. The kitchen, dining, and living areas now flow together easily. Therefore, the home supports both relaxed family life and social gatherings.
Sustainable Private House Extension with Garden Access
This private house extension sits carefully on a sloping site. By lowering the new floor to garden level, the design reduces its visual impact on neighbours. It also improves access to outdoor space and creates a strong connection between inside and out.
In addition, the new structure respects the shape and character of the existing home. The materials match the original house, ensuring visual harmony. Furthermore, this approach saves resources and helps the project blend naturally into its setting.
Maximising Views and Daylight
Large sliding glass doors frame the garden and fill the kitchen with natural light. Meanwhile, the lowered ground level improves sightlines from both the dining and living rooms.
Consequently, the family can enjoy the view year-round. The result is a home that feels open and calm, where daylight and greenery become part of everyday life.
Private House Extension Designed for Modern Living
Ultimately, this private house extension in Buckinghamshire reflects Studio AVC’s focus on light, comfort, and sustainability. Every detail—from layout to materials—was planned to improve how the family lives.
With its practical design, natural light, and connection to the garden, the house now meets the needs of contemporary life while keeping its warm, familiar character.
