The project
Ladywood Mead occupies a steeply sloping woodland site in the Roundhay Conservation Area. The existing mid-century house had retained much of its original detailing and offered wide views from the lounge and roof terrace, but the changing ground levels kept the principal living spaces apart from the rear garden.
Ian Hazard Architects approached the renovation with restraint, preserving the building’s material character while repairing and reorganising its interior. Interior designer and client Lucy Clarke-Bishop collaborated closely with the practice on the work.
A new rear extension completes the route through the house and into the garden. It accommodates the kitchen, dining and lounge spaces, where large glazed openings bring the woodland close. A light stair and timber-screened wall connect the new family room to the levels above.
