A separate children’s zone that would accommodate their two primary school aged boys through their teenage years was the top priority for this family, and since backyard space was precious, a second storey extension was the answer.
FAMILY
This clever design has fulfilled the clients wish-list, providing a spacious, comfortable zone for the children, a stunning powder room, functional laundry with additional storage, and the bonus of extra living space, all while staying within the dwelling’s original footprint.
STYLE
The vertical stringy-bark timber external lining and large areas of glass at the rear of the home form a stunning backdrop to the pool and deck area, allowing this space to function as a seamless extension of the living area.
