The Coach House

 Grade II Listed Conversion

Sitting within the grounds of a Grade II listed Regency town house, the coach house was built to accommodate visiting horse and carts.

Too small to function as a modern garage, the building fell into disrepair and its owners approached us with a simple brief - to convert the building into a two-bedroom house in a discreet manner; that would respect the buildings heritage.

To bring light and ventilation into the building’s functional facade, Forest Architecture looked to the Chelsea Mews House as a precedent, as much of the area's Georgian and Regency building stock underwent similar alterations. The large openings in the brickwork still dominate the facade and are infilled with elegantly detailed joinery.
