The Rookery, Waterbeach

Project: The Rookery, Waterbeach

Client: Private

Architect: The Whitworth Co - Partnership

Project Outline:

This scheme involves the complete refurbishment, restoration and extension of a very large Victorian property. Much of the property has remained untouched for a long period of time and as such needs general maintenance and repair. Various structural alterations are proposed within the existing building, along with the construction of a modern kitchen extension with a large expanse of folding glazing to access the garden and an ambitious opening between the new and existing areas.  Superstructures were appointed to undertake an initial structural survey of the building which uncovered a number of areas requiring attention. We have undertaken the specification of strengthening and repairs in conjunction with the structural design of the extension and alterations. Work is currently continuing at pace on site with the majority of structural works now complete.
