Demolishing or removing an older house to make way for a new build isn’t always the best solution.
A major renovation can be a better way to maximise both the space and views, especially when existing-use rights ensure the height of a house can be retained.
The original house on this site in St Heliers was so long past its use-by-date, that it had been abandoned for a few years while the owners decided on the best way to approach the project.
The solution was an extreme makeover designed by Morrison Architecture and built by Scarbro Residential, a company that specialises in the construction of medium to high-end houses, alterations, and multi-unit developments.
