A Stunning Seafront Transformation with Elfin Kitchens
About The Project.
Elfin Kitchens worked with local building contractor Matt Taylor to lovingly transform an aged 14-bedroom, guest house into a bespoke development of fully self-contained Air BNB apartments. With its enviable location in the heart of Clacton and breathtaking views of the pier, this property has been reimagined to deliver modern, functional, and stylish living spaces that perfectly suit its coastal surroundings.
Project Goals
- Convert an aged guest house into unique, fully self-contained apartments.
- Design each unit to feature a double bedroom, ensuite bathroom, and a compact yet functional kitchen.
- Meet logistical challenges posed by the multi-floor property, ensuring all installations were completed on time and to the highest standard.
Challenges Faced
- Complex Property Layout: The original house’s three floors and basement presented logistical challenges for delivery and installation.
- Space Constraints: Kitchens needed to be compact without compromising on functionality or durability.
- Tight Deadlines: Adhering to the project’s timeline was essential to ensure a smooth handover.
Solutions
Elfin Kitchens provided 20 prebuilt premium bronze kitchen units for this Project, perfectly blending style and practicality. These included:
- 9x Premium Range BR-M-150-FOV-US-RI units
- 10x Premium Range BR-M-160-FOV-US-RI units
- 1x Premium BR-M-170-FOV-US-RI unit.
Each kitchen came with an integrated fridge with freezer compartment, full under-counter oven with grill, induction hob, wall cupboards with extractors for storage and ventilation, and a durable, premium bronze finish.
The prebuilt kitchens were designed for quick, plug-and-play installation, but were easily dismantled and reassembled to combat the complex layout of the new space which saved time and ensured a smooth delivery process across all floors, keeping the project on track.
