*NEW*
Situated within the quiet, tree-lined streets of Centennial Park, this extensive heritage renovation and extension reimagines a grand family residence while carefully preserving the character and craftsmanship of the original home. The project involved a complete transformation of the existing two-storey dwelling, balancing contemporary functionality with the architectural integrity demanded by strict heritage requirements.
Internally, the home was entirely reconfigured to create expansive new living spaces, including a bespoke kitchen with adjoining butler’s pantry and breakfast room, multiple formal and informal living areas, five bedrooms with ensuites and two additional bathrooms, as well as a carefully detailed attic conversion featuring an additional bedroom, rumpus room, ensuite and powder room. To the rear, the home was extended to open seamlessly onto a generous outdoor entertaining terrace complete with an external fireplace, lounge, BBQ, bar area and pool, reinforcing the connection between indoor living and landscape.
A key focus throughout the build was the preservation and restoration of heritage detailing. Existing staircases, ornate cornices, ceilings, doors and timber finishes were meticulously retained and integrated alongside contemporary architectural interventions. Externally, the façade was restored and repainted, while recycled roof tiles were sourced to match the original roofscape and maintain the home’s historic character.
Delivered within an impressive 12-month programme, the project successfully navigated material lead time pressures, evolving interior design direction and complex stakeholder coordination. The result is a refined and enduring residence that honours its heritage setting while embracing modern family living in one of Sydney’s most prestigious park-side enclaves.
