This project was to take an existing house and adapt the internals to suit a young girl with disabilities and her family. We were also to produce a side extension doubling the floor area to provide additional new specialist facilities and live-in carer accommodation. The project expanded to include basement aqua-therapy facilities.
The building frontage was almost doubled in length (photo during construction phase, incomplete works)
