Modern living,
original character.

This project reworked an ageing double-brick home into a modern four-bedroom, four-bathroom residence. Rather than a simple addition, the work re-imagined the front façade and reconfigured the internal layout, so the home suits the way the family lives now while keeping the character that gave it its feel.

A 29 m² extension reshaped the front of the home and its street presence, paired with a completely new roof in place of the original tiles and a re-clad exterior. Inside, the layout was opened up, with a new master ensuite and powder room added.

Connecting old and new came down to careful detailing. The parquetry flooring was matched from the home's original character timber across to the new concrete slab, a technically demanding step resolved to a clean, consistent finish throughout. The result is a home that offers modern comfort and function while holding on to its character.

A full home
renovation.

This was a whole-home transformation, not a single addition. The work was grouped into clear areas, each resolved with long-term durability and everyday liveability in mind.

Plan Your Project
01

Front Extension & Façade

A 29 m² extension to the front of the home, re-imagining the façade and reshaping the way it presents to the street.

02

New Roof

The original tiled roof fully replaced with a new roof, improving both the look of the home and its long-term weather protection.

03

External Re-Cladding

A re-clad exterior to unify the original home with the new work and refresh the building envelope.

04

Reconfigured Interior

The internal layout reworked from a three-bedroom, two-bathroom plan into a four-bedroom, four-bathroom home, including a new master ensuite and powder room.

05

Character Flooring

Parquetry flooring matched from the home's original character timber across to the new concrete slab, a technically demanding step resolved to a clean, consistent finish.

06

Moisture Remediation

Existing water damage addressed through waterproofing remediation, removing a long-term moisture problem and protecting the home for the years ahead.

A better home
to live in.

01

Reconfigured for Family Life

The layout was reworked from three bedrooms and two bathrooms to four of each, with a new master ensuite and powder room, shaped around how the family actually uses the home.

02

Drier, Healthier Home

The original water damage was remediated and the home re-waterproofed, removing a long-term moisture problem and protecting both the structure and the indoor environment.

03

Character Carried Through

The parquetry and façade work blend the home's original character with the new extension, so the finished result feels considered and whole rather than bolted on.
