Modern Architecture Replacement dwelling Northern Ireland  

This home was given a re-design from a traditional to very modern design with a wrap-around home with a south facing courtyard. The main element is a two-storey box which passes through a flat roof link then into a single storey wrap around floor plan onto the garage creating the courtyard effect. The main element is the front entrance onto the main entrance hall with a guess suite and a spare room/study.

 As you walk into the flat roof link area, this houses the main bathroom for downstairs. The single-story part consists of the main living area with a vaulted ceiling, off this is a dining suite joining onto a kitchen also featuring a vaulted ceiling. This extends back to the back-door lobby, toilet and utility room.  The main kitchen features a vaulted ceiling and bifold doors opening onto the south facing patio courtyard with a large feature glass corner window looking onto the landscape views. The kitchen also features an island and breakfast bar to give a sleek modern touch. The
kitchen has a surround to the fridge to help join the kitchen and dining spaces as one. As you pass through the kitchen into the dining area which features a glass corner window taking in those landscape views again. The main living suite is front to back taking in the landscape of
both the back and front of the house including a feature fire.


As you go upstairs the landing wraps round with a feature corner window which overlooks the courtyard below and landscape views looking over the top of the kitchen living and dining areas, and also features a vaulted ceiling with roof lights to take in natural sun light and modernise the home interior.  Upstairs also consists of the main master suite and third bedroom featuring a large dressing room and en-suite with a featured zinc cladded dormer
window in both en-suites.

This is a self-build home which has been finished with a brilliant attention to detail with a mix of modern and traditional materials such a natural stone, timber cladding and zinc cladding to feature dormers. The main front elevation of the house has the timber cladded porch and zinc cladded dormer windows including a zinc cladded flat roof link, leading onto the single storey kitchen, dining, and living spaces. The main courtyard is framed with a large natural stone arch leading onto the courtyard behind. As you approach the courtyard there is lots of natural stone landscape planters which leads into the south facing patio area, where all the main areas of the house open out onto, such as the living room, kitchen and entrance hall looking over it. The garage forms another leg of the courtyard and features a flat roof covered car port area which is zinc cladded and some natural timber.
