Two single-storey homes brought back to a bright white, with black window and door surrounds for a crisp, traditional contrast.

Timber front doors rubbed down, primed and finished in hard-wearing gloss: a Victorian door in racing green and an arched panelled door in pillar-box red.

Semi-detached: beige render to light grey
Beige render washed down, cracks filled and loose areas made good, then two coats of light grey masonry paint with a dark plinth line. The house number has been blurred for privacy.
