Upgrading a Miner's Cottage to Add Functionality

The Brief

This old miners cottage, while beautiful in its own right, was in desperate need of extra space for the new owners. While the cottage had gorgeous old-world charm, the owners wanted to add a modern extension to the home to make the spaces more functional for their lifestyle. The property also held some significant constraints with the block being extremely sloping.

Project Details

A new modern, bright and functional extension was added to the property in line with the brief. A new dining room, kitchen, walk-in-pantry, two lounge areas, linen press, stairwell, bedroom, ensuite and laundry were added to the home, increasing the overall floor plan by 269m2.

All finishes and materials were carefully selected to allow the existing home to blend beautifully with the new addition.
Once the new extension was constructed, the entire dwelling was re-roofed and a 70 square metre external deck was added, perfectly positioned to capture the amazing ocean views.
