Three new extensions by Martin Swatton Design (www. martinswatton. com) have turned this bungalow into a contemporary home. The openplan living area features a glazed gable and span of bifolds to blur the link between inside and out
Many people favour the bungalow. Not only do these buildings provide all your rooms on one level, but they generally come on a good-sized plot with decent garden space, too. Bungalows haven’t been popular for new builds for several decades now because developers are keen to maximise the number of houses built on a site. But this doesn’t mean demand has diminished, as many homeowners see the potential these can give for a bespoke home.
