Millers Point Heritage Listed Terrace II

Hunters Hill Heritage Listed Estate

This project began in 2015 when the clients first purchased the home. Having been a rental for many years and then sat idle, the house was in need of some desperate TLC. I worked with the clients on a master plan for the house and site which included everything from restoration of the original dwelling through to a new, contemporary living pavilion that would really connect the house into the

Petersham Terrace

Located in the Inner West of Sydney, the Petersham house is a single storey terrace with heritage features. The rear of the house had undergone some previous “quick” renovations, and generally needed to be straightened out and updated, to the more tasteful interior that the client desired. The original features in the front two rooms of the house were retained and not altered, and we are
