A stone's throw from Hampstead Heath, this house on Sheldon Avenue had a outstanding wide and mature garden. But it was a metre below the level of the house, with limited views from inside. The brief was to lower the whole rear half of the house, and build a full length glass extension allowing all rooms to open onto the garden. Fineline Aluminium's glazing system has fully retractable doors to create a truly inside / outside experience.
