For this bespoke renovation project in Wetherby, a timber frame extension was the perfect solution to complement and expand the existing property.

The client, who was undertaking a full renovation of the original home, chose an uninsulated timber frame option. This practical and cost-effective decision ensured continuity — since insulation was already being integrated internally throughout the main house, it made perfect sense to apply the same method to the new extension.

Key Benefits of the Approach:

• Streamlined build timeline by reducing construction complexity
• Flexibility in insulation fitting for consistent performance across old and new structures
• Architectural integrity with a seamless blend between existing property and new extension

A standout design element is the use of stunning glulam ridge beams, left exposed internally. These not only provide strength and support, but also introduce warmth, texture, and character — transforming the extension into a space with its own unique architectural identity.
