CONVERTING MULTI-OCCUPANCY HOUSE INTO TWO SEPARATE DWELLINGS

Located in the exclusive and beautiful South West London district of Kew , PAD Architects converted a multi-occupancy house into two separate dwellings .
The ground and first floor were combined and transformed into a large , contemporary property with three excellent bedrooms , spacious living areas and wonderful outdoor spaces . With PAD ’ s help , the client finished this property to an exceptionally high standard and has happily made it her home .
The third floor was converted into a self contained one bedroom flat with separate entrance which the client is able to rent out successfully .
The kitchen is minimal and contemporary in that way is unlikely to ever age . The finish on Mortlake Road is high end , and this level of quality of finish is timeless . The second something begins to look tatty and faded it reveals its age and lack of currency , the kitchen in Mortlake Road has clever storage solutions , clean lines , neutral block colours and hidden appliances , meaning it retains that ‘ just finished ’ look . The kitchen is open plan , light and spacious .
