This 1920s bungalow had great bones – it just needed the right touch to bring its charm back to life and rework the layout for modern living.

The brief was to honour the home’s original character while introducing a new addition that would open the living and add a large modern kitchen.

A raked ceiling over the new rear extension draws in northern light – connecting seamlessly to a north-facing alfresco for year-round indoor-outdoor living.

At the front, a subtle facelift and the addition of a double carport with exposed timber rafters helped restore the home’s street presence, reviving its natural character and beauty with considered simplicity.

The result? A timeless blend of old and new – where heritage charm meets relaxed, modern family living.
