How lovely is this little house with an outdoor patio? We are so thrilled to assist the owner with this renovation project! To suit the owner’s request, we managed to transform a quite small living room into a more spacious living and dining area. In the meantime, the current kitchenette, located in a very dark corner, will become a proper kitchen. It will have plenty of sunlight and more space for appliances and storage, which is great!

The laundry and the bathroom will now be in the same room. Therefore, we proposed a separate powder room with a wall-hung toilet and a hand basin. Behind the toilet, a feature wall with a niche and LED light will bring some design flair to the enclosure. Moreover, we added a covered patio with access to the bedroom, integrated with the existing porch. The roof above the patio will follow the same pitch as the garage, located on the opposite side of the house. Regarding the garage, we created a storage room at the back, taking advantage of existing walls.

The main goal of this renovation project was to create more privacy for the members of a growing family. Initially, they wanted to isolate the existing master bedroom from the rest of the house, adding to it a separate living area. This bedroom would then be occupied by the owner’s daughter and her partner.

So the first step was to make room for a second master bedroom, for the parents. Since the family didn’t use the office very often, we opened it to an adjoining bedroom, creating a master suite with a walk-in robe. We then transformed the laundry into an ensuite, taking advantage of the existing plumbing.

The owners wanted a European-style laundry, so we adapted one of the cupboards along the corridor to place the trough. We also made room for a stackable washing machine and dryer, as well as a bigger cupboard beside it. Since we had to bring pipes to the new laundry, we installed a small kitchenette on the other side of the wall. The kitchenette faces the media room, having a frigobar, a microwave, and a sink.

The media room now works as a living area for the owner’s daughter and her partner. It has a private access to the outdoors, allowing for the young couple’s own routine. However, the room is still connected to the rest of the house through an internal door.

Last, but not least, the owners complained about the corridor that leads to the bedrooms being too dark. Aiming to bring more light to this part of the house, we removed an existing wall at the entry hall. We proposed a feature screen instead, made of timber battens from floor to ceiling.
