Works to this classic sandstone villa were completed in two stages; refurbishment of the existing house and the contemporary rear extension. Renovations to the existing villa had to be designed and constructed within a tight time frame to suit the needs of our clients. Once settled in their home, design, documentation and finally construction were undertaken for the extension at the rear of the property.

Our brief was to provide a comfortable and inviting home to suit their young family, with a classic pallet of finishes and textures. The home features four generous sized bedrooms, the main bedroom suite complete with large dressing room and ensuite. Accessed off the central hallway are a second bathroom and powder room, as well as the laundry, mudroom and gym.

The rear addition comprises a dining, kitchen and butler’s pantry which wrap around a central courtyard, filling the space with light. This abundance of natural light combined with lush external landscaping, create an almost seamless connection between the inside and outside spaces. The large kitchen opens onto a covered alfresco area overlooking a pool and layered landscaped garden by Greenwell.
