An Extended Victorian Apartment with Exposed Brick Walls

The ground floor of a Victorian terrace house in Peckham, London, has undergone a beautiful extension in recent years, creating an open-plan living space with large windows overlooking the private back garden.

The new additions to the two-bedroom house are a poured concrete floor and large glazing, creating a living space where materials like concrete, brick, wood, and steel pair beautifully together in one cozy living space.

The main living space is located at the back of the house with Crittal-inspired doors that frame views of the garden. The L-shaped plan of the living space means that there are dedicated areas for cooking, dining, and living while also maintaining an open and airy feeling.

The sitting area is located in the back, connected to the garden. In here, exposed wooden beams, old Victorian brickwork, and steel beams come together in a cozy area decorated with color.

The non-brick walls are painted in a soft pink hue, creating a nice contrast between the raw materials and soft color tones.

The kitchen features Shaker-style cabinets painted in a light green hue, paired with timber countertops and an exposed brick backsplash wall.

The kitchen island with the breakfast bar connects the cooking and dining area in the open-plan living space.

The kitchen is located under a huge skylight, flooding the space with natural light. There are Crittall doors on either side, one leading to a tiny patio and the other to the back garden.

The apartment has two bedrooms, both painted in a soft pink hue. The smaller room has a window facing the patio and features built-in shelves and a hand-built storage unit.

The largest bedroom sits at the front of the plan, featuring a large Victorian bay window. The room is fitted with bespoke joinery beside the bed and floor-to-ceiling wardrobes, all painted the same pink hue as the walls.
