Attic Conversion in Harrison Gardens, Edinburgh: From One to Three Bedrooms

Unlocking the Potential of an Existing Home Through Attic Conversion. The best home transformations often start by looking at the space we already have.

An unused attic can offer significant potential to create additional accommodation and fundamentally change the way a home works.

This project at Harrison Gardens, Edinburgh, demonstrates how a carefully designed attic conversion can transform an existing one-bedroom flat into a spacious three-bedroom home, with an additional ensuite bathroom.

Transforming a One-Bedroom Flat into a Three-Bedroom Home

The main objective was to make better use of the existing roof space, creating two additional bedrooms and significantly increasing the property’s usable living accommodation.

By incorporating the attic into the existing flat, we were able to introduce a more flexible layout that provides additional space for family living, guests or working from home.

As a result, the property gains the functionality of a three-bedroom home while making efficient use of its existing building footprint.

Creating Additional Bathroom Accommodation

Alongside the new bedrooms, the project introduces an additional ensuite bathroom, improving privacy and convenience while making the enlarged home more practical for everyday living.

Furthermore, the revised arrangement allows the additional accommodation to function as an integrated part of the existing flat rather than simply an isolated attic space.

Making Better Use of Existing Buildings

Attic conversions offer an opportunity to unlock valuable accommodation within the existing building envelope. Rather than moving home or undertaking a more extensive extension, homeowners can often achieve a significant increase in usable space by rethinking their existing roof space.

In this project, the conversion demonstrates how thoughtful architectural design can adapt an existing property to meet changing needs while making better use of the building’s available space.

Visualising the Transformation

Our architectural visualisation and animation illustrate how the original one-bedroom flat evolves into a three-bedroom home.

Through 3D modelling, we help our clients understand the proposed layout and appreciate the potential of spaces that might otherwise remain unused.
