Below the house

The whole footprint was dug out to make a lower ground floor with a family room, an office and a guest bedroom. The original stone was kept on show.

A quiet room

White cabinetry keeps the office calm and puts everything out of sight.

The oldest wall in the house is now the best thing in the newest room.
