WATERLOCK COTTAGE, STOURMOUTH
​
THE BRIEF:
​
To extend the existing building to include for a large garden room, kitchen, porch, ground floor W.C., first floor master bedroom with ensuite and dressing area.
Proposed Oak Frame Extensions
Waterlock Cottage
This building is a beautiful house in the heart of the Kent countryside. It is built in oak frame and there is exposed oak work throughout the house.
​
The client was adamant on keeping the exposed oak work and, in being true to material, so the extension is a brick outer skin with oak internal skin. It has exposed jowl posts and frame internally, and the king post trusses and rafters are all exposed in the bedroom.
​
The single storey element to the building now completes the rear elevation. It's 40 degree pitch adds quirky details of low windows.
