A stunning transformation of Birkenhead Cottage, blending heritage charm with modern design, featuring four bedrooms, four bathrooms, and an expansive open-plan living area, set to complete in 2024.
Experience the transformation of Birkenhead Cottage, a heritage property in Birkenhead village. Originally a deceased estate fallen into disrepair, our clients saw the potential in its prime location, character, and size of the section. With a complete interior overhaul while preserving its unique exterior features, this project reimagined the cottage into a stunning masterpiece.
The renovation included converting the lounge into a master bedroom, reconfiguring the interior to accommodate four bedrooms and four bathrooms. A nine-meter rear extension was added, featuring an open plan kitchen, living, dining area, a separate lounge, and a butler's pantry. French doors were introduced to seamlessly connect every living space to the expansive garden, replacing the previous closed-off arrangement.
The result is a remarkable 'before and after' story, boasting high ceilings, abundant natural light, luxurious kitchen and bathroom areas, and spacious living spaces. Stay tuned for phase two of the project, scheduled for completion in 2024. Birkenhead Cottage is a true testament to the beauty of heritage restoration and modern design.
