Renovation of three-bedroom bungalow in a small Devon village
This little building, a three-bedroom bungalow has been transformed from a family home to a piece of 'architectural heritage' through the agency of the Landmark Trust.
Upon entrance to the house, you find yourself on an upper level with bedrooms and bathroom arranged along a short passage glazed with white diffusing plyglass. The kitchen, dining and study areas are on the same level, modest and snug. Following a side cut and four steps down you find the living area, fully glazed and level with the garden.
This sequence is organised with picturesque contrasts of enclosure and openness, obscurity and light – the sort of contrasts one expects to find in a garden.
