Conversion and Renovation
Cley, Norfolk
This project saw the revival of a pair of derelict semi-detached houses in the heart of Cley. Planning permission was secured to combine the two into a single family home, and we were brought on board to handle the design, specification, tender process, and project management for a developer client.
The condition of the original buildings meant that roughly two-thirds had to be taken down and rebuilt from the ground up. We designed a spacious, four-bedroom home with a modern open-plan kitchen and dining area, while also carving out space for a cosy living room and snug. The layout makes the most of the footprint and balances openness with quieter, more private corners - perfect for everyday family life.

Results
The finished home feels bright, welcoming, and full of personality. It strikes the perfect balance between modern family living and village charm, providing a space where the family can comfortably settle and thrive. This project really shows how thoughtful design and careful management can breathe new life into an old, tired building.
