“This elegant transformation revives a 1920s Arts and Crafts home, blending heritage with modern family living. A new pavilion opens to restored gardens, enhancing light and flow. Rich materials – oak, marble, and fluted details– harmonise past and present. Carefully curated interiors and landscaping preserve the home’s character, while thoughtful planning maintains its original street presence. Sustainable choices, including improved insulation, solar panels, and rainwater collection, ensure long-term performance. The result is a refined, grounded family home, perfectly attuned to both its history and its future.”
