From bungalow to chalet-style family home ✨
This design proposal reimagines a 3-bedroom bungalow into a spacious 4-bedroom chalet, tailored for modern family living.
The ground floor centres around a generous open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, creating a seamless connection to the garden. At first floor level, a vaulted master suite provides a private retreat, complete with a walk-in wardrobe, luxury ensuite and dedicated seating area.
Working within a constrained site, challenged by overlooking neighbours and tapered boundaries, the design carefully balances scale, privacy and functionality. By extending the eaves and reconfiguring the internal layout, we’ve achieved the character and proportions of a traditional chalet-style bungalow.
Natural materials play a key role in the design, with timber-framed elements, timber soffits and fascias adding warmth and texture.
Now for the big question... 👇
Do you prefer the clean lines of horizontal timber cladding or the timeless character of shingle cladding?
