Orangery in Heacham, Norfolk, completed!

Our Client was having quotes for a conservatory to extend their 1910 Semi-detached house by the sea in beautiful Heacham, North Norfolk.
They were looking for an extra room to open up into the garden and a place to relax and dine in.
I proposed to take the project further by opening up the house wall and extending the kitchen/ breakfast room into the new building, creating one large room instead of 3 small ones.
Due to building regulation requirements, we had to propose a building that was more 'structural' than just a conservatory as we had to prove the new design would improve the CO2 emissions for the whole property in line with Doc' L Building reg's- Conservation of fuel and power.

The proposed design was an orangery with a lantern roof, complementing the design and scale of the original house. The build time from start to finish was 7 weeks and it only cost a little more than a conservatory.

For further details contact Matthew at Morgan Bishop or visit our website.

  1. The Victorian design greenhouse tend to limit furniture position unless they are truly big. The Edwardian conservatory ,with no diagonal facets, is the easiest of all the conservatories to mark out and build.
