Reclad Coastal Home

Originally constructed with a monolithic plaster exterior, this home was comprehensively reimagined through a complete reclad and full-scale renovation, creating a timeless residence that better reflects its exceptional coastal setting.

The exterior transformation included the replacement of the plaster cladding with traditional timber weatherboards, complemented by new joinery, a new roof, extensive decking, fencing, and thoughtfully designed landscaping. Together, these elements have given the home a warm, enduring character while significantly enhancing its street appeal and connection to the surrounding environment.

Internally, the home was completely refurbished to create a modern, functional living environment for a growing multi-generational family. The renovation included new bedrooms and bathrooms, a bespoke kitchen and scullery, upgraded plumbing and electrical services, and premium flooring throughout. Structural and design modifications were carefully integrated to maximise natural light, improve the flow between living spaces, and fully embrace the property's elevated position with its sweeping ocean and city views.

The result is a beautifully crafted family home that combines timeless architectural character with contemporary living—designed to complement its remarkable setting and be enjoyed for generations to come.
