Salem Cottage

Dundee - 2011

The brief was to create a four bedroom house with a minimum of two bathrooms to accommodate a growing young family with four children. Project Summary

Salem Cottage is a C listed oasis of calm tucked away right in the centre of Dundee. The brief was to create a four bedroom house with a minimum of two bathrooms to accommodate a young family with four children. The existing house had two bedrooms at first floor with another one remote in a poorly planned and built previous extension.

With a very limited budget the proposed extension was carefully planned to maximize the use of space and simply constructed in timber frame with timber cladding to minimize costs. The major achievement was to create four bedrooms (on one floor to suit the family), three bathrooms, two public rooms and an open plan kitchen/dining room for eighty thousand pounds.
