Bellerive Extension

This weatherboard home in Bellerive has undergone a renovation and extension to allow more light, better flow, appreciation of the view and easy access to the backyard. This home needed to function well, have a place for everything and be calm and nurturing for a busy family to grow up in.

The rear of the house was previously congested, blocking out the warming northern sun and backyard. Through this renovation we opened up the back of the house to let the northern light in and provide physical and visual access to the outside. A 50m2 new addition stepped up the existing slope to add another bedroom and bathroom. It was important that all the spaces of this home felt connected via view lines but there were also spaces for quiet retreat.
