The design of the rear addition was quite complex and required the demolition of the existing homes garage and meals area (that were replaced in other locations of the site).
With careful thought and planning, we were able to wrap the home around the front corner of the site to maximise the space we had available. This let us comfortably fit all of the required accommodation the clients asked for, including the request to keep the existing pool and to not encroach too much into the garden. In doing this, it also creates more of a defining street frontage and sense of address, while also reducing the length of the driveway to the street.
The bedrooms were positioned towards the rear of the site and are all well sized for families; they include fitted robes and share a bathroom and an ensuite between them. The living areas are bright, warm spaces orientated north, overlooking the pool and garden.
Entry is gained either through parking in the garage, with easy shopping access through the laundry and into the kitchen, or along the southern side of the house, through a feature framed passageway, past greenery and gardens towards the porch canopy. The entry way is a fabulous double storey volume with a winding staircase up to the first floor.
