Widcombe Crescent is a Grade 1 Listed Building close to the centre of Bath. Our client purchased a duplex garden apartment that had been unlived in for many years, suffering from damp and neglect, with no spaces which took advantage of the stunning view to the west. We designed and obtained Planning and Listed Building Consent for a modern garden room extension, featuring large areas of glass and corner opening doors leading to a redesigned garden. Inside, we removed the failing C20th modifications which revealed some lost historic features and devised methods to deal with the failings of the neglected structure – all with the support of the local Bath and Northeast Somerset Planning and Conservation team. Our clients completed the beautiful interior design and now enjoy a comfortable modern historic home in the city.
