Bungalow in Gurnard


This bungalow has been converted into a house and now enjoys stunning views of the Western Solent from the master suite to the rear.

The original roof was completely removed and replaced with 'Bobtail' attic trusses forming the structure of the new first floor.

The existing attic floor and ground floor ceilings were kept intact, enabling the occupants to remain in situ.

The external cladding is compressed fibre cement to provide Class 0 fire resistance.

Almost complete.
