Richardson Street Terrace

Situated on a single-fronted site in Middle Park, this renovation of a Victorian terrace house highlights PTD Studio's commitment to designing adaptable family homes that foster a strong connection to the outdoors. Rather than consolidating open space into a single backyard or forming a singular house mass, the layout divides the site into distinct living zones, seamlessly connected by a beautifully landscaped courtyard. At the heart of the home, the north-facing courtyard bathes the living and dining areas in natural light, creating a harmonious indoor-outdoor flow. The bedrooms, including the main bedroom and study at the front of the property, enjoy tranquil courtyard views, while a self-contained studio apartment at the rear provides added versatility for accommodating guests or extended family. The interior design features a sophisticated material palette of natural stone and timber, combining warmth with timeless elegance. Every detail has been meticulously crafted, with precision evident in the fine detailing and the selection of high-end fixtures, elevating both style and functionality throughout the home. To honour the heritage overlay and preserve Middle Park's architectural character, the front façade will be painstakingly restored to its former grandeur, ensuring it complements the historic charm of the surrounding streetscape.
