A 1920s character home transformed into a light-filled family retreat. Outdated additions were replaced with a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area flowing to a north-facing garden and alfresco zone. A rear carport doubles as an entertaining space, while a compact storage area adds functionality. Inside, the former living room became a luxurious master suite with garden views. Cost-effective updates, including repurposed cabinetry and a custom island bench, revitalised the interiors. Bifolding doors open to native landscaping and weathering steel accents, creating a timeless blend of heritage charm and contemporary living.
