These images show how a loft has been converted to create a master en-suite bedroom using the existing loft space and head height by installing Velux windows for added light and a means of fire escape.

Once the conversion was completed the occupiers decided the space was more than suitable for their young son to use as a bedroom. The staircase is positioned in the existing hallway and leads to the bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and toilet off to one side.

This conversion is an example of what can be achieved with a little imagination and a good design. The conversion did not need planning permission as the rooms were constructed within the original loft space and no alterations to the existing roof were required.
