Elfort Road House
Amos Goldreich Architecture
This project, a Victorian terraced house
in Islington, comprises of a side and roof
extension, as well as extensive internal
refurbishment. Featuring open-plan kitchen,
dining and living areas on the ground and
lower-ground floors, Elfort Road House has
been transformed from dark and cluttered
into light and spacious.
Our clients, a young family of three, required
a larger property with extensive space. The
brief was to create a light, airy, family-
friendly environment: an abode featuring
sophisticated simplicity, clever uses of
space, an open-plan feel for entertaining,
contemporary touches, yet with a respect
for the original period style and featuring
high-quality, timeless design.
The spaces for eating, living and working
are arranged over an open series of
half-levels, exploiting volume and light.
Removing the third bedroom at the first half-
landing resulted in a study half the depth
and a spacious double-height living room.
