The existing townhouse is one of six three-storey terraced dwellings in Herne Bay. The 80’s interior was outdated and pokey, a faint memory of the now modern and stylish three-bedroom, three-bathroom home designed by Jessica White.
With all exterior window and door joinery replaced, walls were removed and relined, modernized with clean and fresh detailing. Features such as grooved plywood walls, extensive built-in cabinetry, tiled reveals and a new stair balustrade with brass detail bring something extra special to this urban retreat.
Completed 2018
