The works included a new garage, kitchen area, bathroom, ensuite, separate WC and laundry, as well as internal renovations to the living spaces.
With a mix of traditional and modern features, the renovation was sympathetic to the original home’s charm, while bringing in a fresh, contemporary feel. Where possible, we utilised as many of the existing elements, including internal doors and cornices. The original marble fireplace was removed and placed in another room to better balance the space. The home featured exquisitely detailed joinery.
Reconfiguring the home required the removal of its existing kitchen, as well as a number of small rooms. The addition of large structural beams supported the newly opened space. To ensure consistent ceiling levels throughout the updated home, the rear ceiling area was removed and rectified.
Additional windows and skylights were installed throughout the home to welcome in as much natural light as possible. Updates included two skylights in the living area, with new floor-to-ceiling louvred windows facing the pool area.
The project was managed in accordance with the third-party installation of an underground pool. A new deck was crafted with composite material, a low maintenance and long-lasting option for easy living and entertaining.
