This fantastic example of full refurbishment works, including side, rear and first floor extensions, internal alterations along with associated landscaping has transformed a 1920 esq bungalow into a beautiful and well-presented family home throughout. . At Burlens Architecture and Planning, we worked with the client to deliver a complete in-house service including; initial concept, planning documentation, detailed building control / working drawings and full structural package. . The external materials and detailing compliment the buildings rural location, with an internal fit-out worthy of any show room. . #extensions #development #architecture #planning #houserenovation #selfbuild #chaletdesign #bungalow #ashford #kent

Burlens Architecture & Planning were instructed to undertake technical details and working drawings for this bespoke single dwelling located within the Surrey Hill Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. . The main details included long metal strip roofing system over curved roofs, vertical cedar cladding, a combination of slate clad with monocouche render, first floor steel access bridge and large retaining walls creating varying level platforms. . The site was challenging due to the huge quantity of chalk and soil being removed, along with narrow access for deliveries, however all the hard work paid off to create a stunning modern family home. . #architecture #design #details #build #construction #planning #surrey #newbuild #selfbuild #familyhome #modern #development

A development that we had the pleasure to be involved with from the very start, from initial concept, design, full planning, technical details, construction and finally completion . The project involved demolishing an existing bungalow and erecting 2 semi-detached family dwellings on land overlooking the River Medway . The guys @themeritgroup have done a fantastic job on a challenging site, ensuring both family homes were completed to their own very high standards . #newbuild #development #rochester #burlens #architecture #design #home #building #buildingcontrol #construction #planning #kent

Plans for these two 4 bedroom houses in Challock have been finalised and accepted by Ashford Borough Council. A 3D visualisation drawing is a great way to see your house plans come to life, and is a service we can offer for you alongside any drawing work. . The first stage of any build is prepping the site for the development, usually involving a lot of mud (as shown here in photo 2!) We are looking forward to seeing this project come together over the next few months. . Ensure all planning conditions are approved, building control satisfied, warranty provider appointed and services applications submitted to avoid onsite delays . #burlens #selfbuild #housingdevelopment #ashfordkent #ashforddevelopment #home #architecture #architecturedesign #burlensarchitecture #architecturekent

The kitchen of a recent self-build project, based just outside of Ashford, Kent. It’s always great to see a project finished! . . For this self-build, the kitchen was designed to be the hub of the house with a large central island measuring 1.5m X 2.8m acting as a main focal point. A white marble design Quartz worktop was installed to give a clean and modern finish with contrasting carbon coloured units below. . To avoid large uninteresting ceiling areas, a dropped ceiling was constructed to mimic the Quartz island below. The installation of ceiling speakers, LED and pendant lighting combined, makes the perfect entertaining environment. . .
