Fulford House

Intricate repair and alteration of Grade II house

Fulford House had changed in appearance and character many times over the years, probably starting life as a relatively small building.

A recent change in ownership provided the opportunity for high quality and sympathetic improvement.

Acanthus Clews’ plans involved the refurbishment, alteration and extension of this stone building. Included was the proposed demolition of a Victorian extension which caused a significant planning issue but ultimately this was seen as considerably enhancing the appearance of the property.

The Victorian extension was replaced with a new extension in keeping with the style of the main house. In addition a bespoke timber conservatory was added and a new coach house built for use as a garage and for storage.

Throughout, the client was prepared to invest in higher than normal quality detailing which resulted in the practice scouring the local area for examples of details like coping and quoins.
