REAR DORMER LOFT CONVERSION IN FEATHERBED LANE, CROYDON, SOUTH LONDON

 

A dormer loft conversion in Croydon gives a teenager a new room with en suite.

​

Growing families ​often need more space. Especially for homes with a small box room, children grow into teenagers and eventually need more room to spread out and study for their GCSE's. Such was the case for this family in Featherbed Lane, Croydon.

​

Our loft conversion specialists explained the options to them. A new master bedroom with en suite upstairs is our most popular loft conversion, but a more cost-effective solution could have been to put a study space upstairs with a Velux loft conversion. 

Instead of these options, this family decided to move their teenager's bedroom upstairs. They chose to include an en suite bathroom, gifting their teenager with more privacy and independence, so it was decided to add a rear dormer to the property.

​

With a dormer in place, there was ample room in the bedroom for a study space with a computer desk, and also for the music keyboard played by this gifted teenager. Not only would they have a quiet place to study, but the rest of the house would have peace and quiet while they practiced their instrument.

​

While many of our customers opt for bespoke fitted wardrobes, this family showed you can make excellent use of space while saving some money with some carefully chosen furniture that fits directly into the space beneath the sloping side of the roof.

 

Grey laminate flooring is used throughout the loft, muffling the sound to the downstairs area while being easy to clean. A brightly coloured rug was chosen to showcase the individuality and creativity of the new occupant.

​

The en suite bathroom was kept simple, with a glass shower, lavatory and sink with a mirror cabinet. A strip of mosaic tile adds some style to the bathroom, while remaining simple and easy to clean. This additional duty is a great way for a teenager to take responsibility for their own space and learn a valuable life skill.

​

The space saving staircase is covered in grey carpet, providing warmth and comfort, and a white balustrade is added for safety.
