“We now use the dining room every day,
whether we’re entertaining or it’s just the
two of us,” says Peter. “We seamlessly
move from one way of using the space to
another, depending on the weather.”
Ann adds: “It makes a nice big
entertaining space too – we can have
drinks on the terrace and then walk in
and sit down for dinner. We do quite a lot
of entertaining and everyone’s always
extremely impressed with the doors and
with what we’ve achieved here.” “And
that’s before we’ve even fully opened the
doors!” quips Peter.
He adds: “I just wish we’d done this
sooner. This extension with the bi-fold
doors has completely transformed the
house. And the surveyor who has since
re-valued the property has told us that
it’s actually added two-and-a-half times
the value of what we spent on the whole
project to the value of the house – so
that’s a fantastic bonus!”
