L-Shaped Dormer
An L shaped dormer loft conversion is where two dormers are built together forming, you guessed it.. an L shape. One part is built over the main part of the property and the other is built on the back elevation. Due to the shape, these dormers are usually only suitable for Edwardian and Victorian properties where this is an existing rear addition on the property.
L-shaped dormer conversions are a great option for creating more space on your property. They are the best way to extend period properties, especially if it’s a mid-terrace. This type of conversion creates so much additional floor space that it usually adds at least two large rooms to your home. Once dormer windows, French doors and Velux windows are added to the design, it creates beautifully bright, generous-sized rooms.
