Glass Extension - Side Return Extension

Glass extension adds value

This side return extension for a Victorian home in Dulwich successfully partners ODC’s contemporary aluminium fixed window and glass roof with its original French doors and period sash windows.

The glass structure fills what was once under-used side access. It’s now a light, bright open plan living space with an outlook to the garden.

Transforms space

Ever popular as a cost-effective way to get more living space and more light into a period home you love, side returns are perennial projects for us. This is a beauty, we have to say, and a favourite detail is the window seat incorporated into the large fixed window. The perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee!

Fixed window frames

A great cost-effective glazing solution, a fixed frame or picture window opens up views without impacting on the layout of a room. That one single pane of glass can add the wow factor to your project you’re looking for.

glazing options for your extension

All-glass insulated or thermally broken aluminium frame glass extensions are robust, high-performance structures with slim sightlines. They make lovely light spaces and transform dark traditional ground floor living areas.

Alternatively, explore the look and feel of bifold doors or a sliding door system to open up your home. This project featured in a recent Grand Designs magazine article – read more about bifolds for garden extensions here.
