Heritage renovation

Hawthorn East

Designed and built in leafy Hawthorn East, this freestanding, single fronted Victorian presented a couple of key challenges. Firstly, building on a small block, only 7 metres wide. And secondly, retaining or replacing heritage door units, windows and fret work.

Extensions included the addition of an ensuite, third bedroom and larger kitchen, meals and living area. The home was rebuilt with Victorian heritage features reinstated on the facade. Period detailing on the facade opens itself into a wide and deep light-flooded entrance hall that oozes contemporary finesse. We utilised the small block to our advantage to maximised living spaces and melded hertiage and modern elements seamlessly.
