Richmond Wrap-Around Extension
Design visualisationImagery shown is a design visualisation of this project.
A stunning architectural rear and side-return wrap-around extension of a Victorian terrace property, introducing a high-spec bespoke kitchen and floor-to-ceiling glass pivot doors.
This Richmond project reimagined the dark, cramped rear layout of a traditional Victorian family terrace. By extending both outward and into the side return, we created a massive, light-filled kitchen-diner and open-plan living hub. The centerpiece is a bespoke white marble kitchen island complemented by hand-crafted warm walnut cabinetry and state-of-the-art appliances. Expansive, ultra-slimline black sliding glass doors slide completely open to reveal a flush threshold leading directly into the landscaped English garden. Polished light concrete flooring spans the entire ground level, heated with low-energy water underfloor heating. High ceilings equipped with architectural slimline black skylights wash the space in brilliant natural light all day.
Integrating modern, expansive glass walls and matching modern load paths with a traditional, solid-brick Victorian facade under strict conservation area planning restrictions.
We worked closely with structural engineers to insert a concealed steel portal framework, redirecting the load of the upper floors without columns. By specifying custom-tinted UV-blocking glass frames and low-profile structural brick slips, we perfectly preserved the historic exterior while delivering a contemporary rear living space.

“Grand Innovations Surrey did an outstanding job on our kitchen extension. This was a big project involving structural steelwork and a full redesign of our layout, and the team handled everything with real expertise. The quality of finish is superb, and the builders were friendly, tidy, and very considerate of our family routine. The result is better than we imagined, and we feel like we're living in a new home.”
