Planning Permission.
Planning permission on a property in Gosforth has been granted.
Acre Design were asked to help modify and extend a 4 bedroom detached family house in Gosforth to provide additional and improved sleeping accommodation upstairs with a modern design.
The client required at least one additional bedroom and an en-suite to be installed. This was created by extending above the garage helping to convert this home into a 6 bedroom property.
The current master bedroom was extended to the rear and a beautiful floor to ceiling height curtain glazed gable included to providing extra light into the room.
To the ground floor a single storey rear extension was designed to provide a larger kitchen dining area and a utility/boot/dog drying room as well as a WC or shower room and an office area.
Additionally, Acre Design created a balcony to the master bedroom to help modernise the look of the property and create a grand space for the client.
Planning Permission was granted for this property through Newcastle City Council.
