The opportunity

This renovation project breathed new life into a charming 1900s miner’s terrace, transforming a tired and damp property into a stylish, energy-efficient home ready for the rental market.

The house had suffered from years of neglect, with rising damp, mould in multiple rooms, and a leaking roof and guttering system. We carried out a full refurbishment, beginning with a complete roof replacement and new gutter installation to resolve the underlying damp issues. To improve energy efficiency, we installed brand-new windows and doors, stripped the front-facing walls back to brick, and insulated them internally.

The interior was reimagined with practicality and longevity in mind—featuring fresh laminate flooring, soft new carpets, a contemporary kitchen, and a modern bathroom redesign. The result is a clean, inviting, and high-quality rental home that attracted a tenant within just one week of marketing.

Design Highlights

Structural & Energy Improvements

A brand-new roof and internal wall insulation helped restore the home’s structure and thermal performance while preserving its period charm.

Stylish Kitchen Upgrade

A deep blue kitchen with elegant gold handles added a timeless sophistication and elevated the overall feel of the space.

Bathroom Redesign

We reconfigured the bathroom layout to make best use of the limited space, repositioning the sink to the front of the room to accommodate a sleek walk-in shower. The combination of dramatic black tiles with warm bronze fittings created a bold, refined atmosphere.
