A single-family home with soul

In the vibrant neighborhood of Bouzas, in Vigo, the teams at Desarrolla Obras y Servicios have just completed a project that goes beyond mere rehabilitation. It is the comprehensive renovation and expansion of a terraced single-family home, a piece of urban architecture transformed delicately into a contemporary, bright, and full of character space.

The residence occupies a usable area of 200 square meters spread across five levels: basement, ground floor, two upper floors, and an attic space. The heart of the project lies in the inner courtyard, a central element that visually and functionally connects all rooms, facilitating smooth circulation and a generous influx of natural light.This open core transforms the living space into a luminous and flexible organism, where each corner communicates with the next.

A contemporary single-family home

The program of requirements caters to a contemporary lifestyle. On the ground floor, the entrance is arranged around an elegant lobby that leads to the kitchen-dining area, envisioned as a space for family gatherings. The first floor houses a double-height living-dining room, overlooking the lower level, creating a sense of spaciousness and spatial continuity.The suite includes two bedrooms, a walk-in closet, a storage area, and a convenient laundry and utility space in the basement, where all the technical challenges inherent in a renovation have been expertly addressed.One of the major achievements of this project is its ability to reinterpret the existing volume, respecting the urban environment —comprised of similar buildings, a result of municipal regulations— without sacrificing a strong and distinct identity.

Reinterpreting Spaces

The integration with its context does not prevent a contemporary interpretation of materials, spaces, and proportions, in a residence that impresses with its elegant simplicity and dynamic interior.In the rear garden, a small patio with a pool adds a breath of fresh air to the structure, extending the living space outdoors and providing a natural transition between indoor domestic life and outdoor living. This connection reinforces the intimate and sophisticated character of the project, designed to be enjoyed in every season.This renovation not only breathes new life into an old home, but reimagines it with a contemporary, functional, and emotional language. A house that is no longer just a place to live, but a spatial experience that speaks of light, proportion, and construction quality.Ultimately, a project whose execution we have greatly enjoyed, which is why we do not want to miss the opportunity to thank the developers for their trust in our work.Visit us at the construction headquarters in Vigo.
