From the Photographer: "G&G Architecten built a narrow and long extension for this house with a historic facade, creating a patio with a plunge/jet pool, a hallway, and open plan for hobbies and dining. The extension completely opens up towards the back garden."

The kitchen in the main building with historic facades connects to the extension and patio with a regular door. the sides of the hallway slide open to have an extended patio.
