Refurbishment and extension of a Queen Anne style house in the Fitzjohns Netherhall Conservation Area
MWA have received planning consent and have now commenced works on site for an 8,000 sqft Queen Anne style family home in Hampstead. The property is not listed but is located within the Fitzjohns Netherall Conservation Area. The existing building is currently arranged over basement, ground, first and second floors. Proposals include a full refurbishment, replacement side extension and full excavation underneath the existing footprint of the building to greatly increase the basement accommodation. There is also an integrated landscaping scheme.
The use of red terracotta on the proposed pavilion references the materiality of the host building and responds to the character of the surrounding conservation area. Together, the works seek to upgrade the building fabric, improve spatial arrangement, and deliver a high-quality family home suited to contemporary living while respecting its context.
