This mid-century terraced house is located in the quiet suburban area of Corstorphine, Edinburgh. A previous front extension had resulted in a long narrow kitchen, separated from the living room and the back garden. The fragmented layout meant that the family were often in separate rooms: cooking, doing homework, watching TV.
