Case study

The Jones’

Clients: Wyn & Lesley Jones

Location: Powys

Wyn Jones and his wife Lesley had scoured their local area of Montgomery, Powys to find their perfect home, but struggled to find exactly what they were looking for, with properties for sale being limited in the vicinity.

After coming across a set of red brick, council-style, semi-detached properties that had been converted into one detached home, the couple could see a lot of potential and quickly made an offer. Although the property wasn’t exactly what they were looking for, they made the decision to extend the property, putting their own stamp on their home.

The couple turned to Welsh Oak Frame to design and build a double storey, oak frame extension. The design was quickly drawn up and was nearly doubled the overall size of the property.

The extension comprises of a hallway, kitchen diner, lounge, two bedrooms, a bathroom and office area.  With an unusual Jacobean-style porch as the entrance, the house stands out beautifully in the local area.

The house is no longer recognisable to the original property and has become a much more convenient and comfortable size home for the family. The couple, along with Welsh Oak Frame, have created a stunning, traditional-looking property within the beautiful Welsh countryside.

Commenting on the creation of their dream home the Jones’ said: “We consider ourselves lucky to have this house.” The property looks stunning and has a light and homely feel, settled within beautiful surrounding, the owners enjoy the stunning views.
