Tucked into one of Sydney’s most prestigious suburbs, this Woollahra townhouse was transformed to bring modern living into harmony with its heritage setting. What began as a compact ageing residence is now a refined family home with open plan interiors, bespoke joinery and seamless indoor outdoor connections. Skylights and full height glazing draw natural light deep into the home while premium materials and carefully considered detailing elevate each space. Working within strict heritage controls and the tight streetscape of Woollahra required precision and thoughtful problem solving. Structural reinforcements, intricate waterproofing and careful material selection ensured the design intent was achieved while respecting the character of the original building. The result is a residence where contemporary comfort sits naturally alongside historic charm, delivering a home designed for modern life while honouring its architectural past.
