Double storey oak frame extensions

Extensions

A double storey oak frame extension is a cost-efficient way to add more space to your home and increase its value. Whether you want a bigger, more open-plan downstairs living space with bedrooms and bathrooms above or extend a cramped kitchen/dining area with a master suite on the first floor – there are endless configuration options. It’s also a perfect opportunity to give the exterior of your home a facelift.

Incorporating an oak frame into the design of your two storey extension will add a wonderful warmth and character to the space, creating something truly unique. Double storey oak frame extensions suit both traditional and contemporary styles – how much oak you would like to incorporate is completely your choice.

3 ideas to inspire your 2 storey oak framed extension project

1. Direct glazing gables

A striking, double height, direct glazed gable end using our unique in-frame glazing will give you uninterrupted, floor-to-ceiling views that flood your home with natural light while creating a seamless link between your home and its surroundings.

2. Vaulted mezzanine floors

Incorporating a mezzanine floor that separates the upstairs and down provides a connection to the rest of the house. Combining this with a double-height glazed gable will ensure you capture the views from both upper and lower levels.

3. Mix traditional and contemporary in your 2 storey oak framed extension

While incorporating an oak frame can provide a characterful glimpse into the past, building a 2 storey oak frame extension with a contemporary interior works incredibly well. Exposed trusses, posts and beams combined with hidden softwood rafters are a great choice for achieving a more contemporary look.
