The brief for this project was to reinvent a traditional Federation home to provide a retiring couple with comfortable living and entertaining spaces, bedrooms for grandchildren and a modern light filled kitchen. This was achieved with a magnificent extension with raked timber ceilings, and state-of-the-art fittings. Much care went into the restoration of the original cottage, maintaining the high ceilings and the original ambience. The judges said this was a great job, with very detailed, quality workmanship, receiving high marks for attention to detail and the quality of the tradespeople used.
