Nestled in the heart of Karori, Wellington, this historic 1920s family home has been carefully restored and modernised, blending timeless character with contemporary comfort.
The home received a full transformation, from front to back. The hardwood deck has been a welcome addition for the clients.
The home's exterior has received an impressive transformation.
High-spec Kanda hardwood has been used for decking and balustrades.
The handrail was custom made, alongside the glass balustrade inserts.
“The exterior required remediation work to the cladding, roof flashings and detailing around the windows, along with a full replacement of all exterior joinery.”
