Project brief: A full home renovation to make the old new again
This Parnell home renovation involved transforming a dated home into a modern, functional space while preserving its character. The project required a careful balance of contemporary upgrades and maintaining the charm of the neighbourhood.
The homeowner aimed to create a more open, light-filled space with modern amenities and a refined design aesthetic while ensuring the home remained true to its historical roots.
Design & planning
The design phase focused on integrating modern living requirements without compromising the villa's architectural integrity. This included open-plan spaces, updated kitchen and bathrooms, and preservation of period details. Working within Parnell’s heritage guidelines presented unique challenges, which the team navigated expertly by collaborating with heritage consultants.
Key features of this home renovation included:
- Kitchen: Sleek cabinetry, high-end appliances, and an open layout perfect for entertaining.
- Bathroom: Luxurious finishes with modern fixtures that add elegance.
- Living space: This home was rich with opportunity in its subtle nooks and quiet corners, which the design utilised with great effect.
Timeline and budget
Despite the complexities of working on a heritage home, the Yourtradie team completed this project within the estimated timeline of six months and remained within the agreed budget.
