A Green Oak garage with rear garden extension in Tonbridge

Green Oak Double Garage and Rear Garden Extension | Architects for Tonbridge 

A newly acquired “forever” home, distinctive and generously proportioned, sits on a quiet country lane in Tonbridge. While perfect in many ways,  a thoughtful update will be necessary. To the upper floor, new flooring and reconfigured partitions have allowed a better balance between the bedroom sizes and each bathroom will be refitted. On the ground floor, the large kitchen will stay in the same location, but a new rear garden extension will replace an inferior conservatory and redefine the ground floor. The mature garden at the side of the main house will provide the location a new Green Oak garage which will also provide a new office/study space on the first floor of the garage. The architectural language employed of the new extension and garage will complement the existing house features, such as white-painted brick, red concrete tiles, and blackened timber cladding, creating a blend of the modern interpretation of the traditional.
