The new extension, as well as renovation to the older part of the home, resulted in a new master bedroom with ensuite, dining, kitchen, butler’s pantry, laundry, powder room, guest bathroom, study, pool, and outdoor living area.

This allows the homeowners to be working privately, yet still feel connected to the rest of the home, and enjoy the natural light provided by the skylight and oversized framing.
