Significant alterations and additions were made to this house located on an intimate beach within a quiet bay of Sydney Harbour.
The renovations are a collaboration with interior design firm Thomas Hamel and Associates, and include formal living and dining rooms with an open plan family/kitchen/meals space overlooking the pool area and bay.
The upper level includes three generous bedrooms with ensuites and a private study
Entry to the house is through a pergola walkway alongside garden lawns and planting.
External finishes include copper to the new bay windows and roofs, masonry and re-use of the existing hand sawn sandstone pavers.
Original building designed by Hill Thalis architects.

We believe good architecture begins with a strong, clear vision.
It is driven by collaboration and a well-thought-out plan to guide sunlight and natural ventilation. It is realised through expertise and intelligent design. It is finessed using premium materials and delivered through precise, robust construction.
We find our inspiration from all aspects of architecture and art to produce designs that reflect our clients’ personalities, are sympathetic to their environs and bring spaces to life. Our carefully crafted houses range from luxurious residences to smaller renovations.
