Classic

This dark and dated 1920s Californian Bungalow had been subjected to numerous poorly planned additions over the years, however it had wonderfully strong bones, beautiful period features, and an unrealised opportunity for natural light to flood in due to its elevated position and north facing aspect. The potential of this residence was clear to our clients when they purchased her.

MILEHAM was engaged to complete the architectural plans, interior design and fitout, project management and construction for an extensive renovation of the residence. A relaxed luxe Hamptons aesthetic with a contemporary/traditional blend of furnishings was chosen for the interiors, with the key architectural brief being for natural floor plan flow, light and wide breezy spaces with the ability for family members to come together yet also have the opportunity to retreat for personal time.

Over two separate renovations the residence was completely transformed into a three storey, five bedroom, 3.5 bathroom family home with multiple indoor and outdoor living and entertaining zones. The original façade was restored, and the floor plan reimagined to capitalise on the northern light and bring a natural flow between the front living, bathroom and bedroom spaces. The rear of the property was demolished with a new extension and addition designed to suit the needs of a young, growing family who wanted room to breathe and enjoy a seamless indoor/outdoor flow. A Master Suite and Guest Ensuite were added to the top floor, with floor to ceiling windows designed to provide expansive yet private views over the district tree canopy. Custom joinery throughout with a focus on tactile, natural surfaces and flooring add to the residence’s refined yet relaxed mood.
