Kings Sutton
A large turn of the century stone house that by an accident at birth had been positioned on site with its front door on the opposite elevation to the drive.
Previous owners had chosen to enter the property through the utility room and the heart of the house was dark and miserly.
The new owners suggested that two central rooms be knocked vertically into one; this space was continued through the new attic link into a glazed lantern and a stone helical stair was pivoted on columns over the stair down to the cellar.
