Project Details
Our clients on this project lived abroad and wanted to completely overhaul their Dublin home. They had works carried out in the past but these had become dated and the house was not energy efficient because retrofit was not common when they last renovated.
This renovation was a wonderful opportunity for us to showcase what we could do because our clients bought into the process entirely and placed an emphasis on achieving the very lowest carbon footprint. To this end they invested in the very latest technologies on this project.
Old extensions were removed entirely and the house was stripped right back to bare timbers. We added a two storey extension to the side and a single storey extension to the rear. The internal layout was significantly altered including a relocated staircase.
Fitting and finishes were of the very highest standard with no compromises. The project was finished off with fabulous hard and soft landscaping by Carragh Landscaping.
