Prior to renovating, this house was in a bad shape. The windows were falling apart and the interior layout was dark and cramped, with no access to the garden from the entertaining spaces. The old roof was leaking, the fascia was disintegrating and the original kitchen was falling to pieces as it hadn’t been touched since it was installed in the 1960s. The owners, however, could see its potential and Summit Construction’s renovation has completely transformed the home. A total layout re-configuration plus a 33sqm extension has created space for four bedrooms, including a large main suite, bespoke kitchen and separate media room. All this, along with a new fireplace, insulation and double glazing has changed the once-damp house into a warm and cosy home.
The clean lines of the kitchen joinery, bathroom fixtures and lighting create a bright, welcoming interior while on the exterior, a new dark colour scheme encompassing the roof, windows and cladding is an attractive contrast to the lighter exterior plastering and timber deck. With a large stacker slider from the open-plan kitchen/living providing connection to the north-west facing deck, and then to the garden, the house is now perfect for entertaining. We know the owners are going to enjoy it for years to come.
