Top of torque wish list was a dream kitchen. "One of the owners is a professional chef, and he wanted the kitchen area to be as functional as it is beautiful, says Simons. 'Therefore, we have added the pantry of a great waiter with lots of storage, double sinks and appliances hardworking. This zone can be opened and connected to the comings and goings in the lounge or completely hidden behind folding doors.
Simons also asked to seamlessly blend the old and the new. The rooms in the oldest part of the house have been updated and includes three bedrooms, a suite for parents and a separate family bathroom for children and guests, as well as an en sunny stay and a study. These rooms are all serviced by a central corridor that leads to the back of the house and on it a spacious new extension which houses the large living spaces. For homeowners, the results could not be better. The assets of the house were left untouched while the family acquired a contemporary extension of generous proportions.
