Renovations and Additions

Nestled in one of Melbourne's most picturesque inner suburbs, this heritage home presented an exciting challenge for Chadwick Architects. Our team approached the renovation with sensitivity and creativity, aiming to enhance the existing structure while seamlessly integrating modern elements.

The result was a stunning contemporary addition to the rear of the property, thoughtfully designed to take advantage of the site's unique shape and orientation. The addition boasts an abundance of natural light, with large windows that connect the interior to the beautiful garden beyond and capture the northern sun throughout the day.

But it's not just the interior that shines. The new outdoor living and entertaining space is equally impressive, offering ample room for relaxation and socializing. And for those hot Melbourne summers, an elevated pool provides the perfect respite.

Our clients' family can now enjoy the best of both worlds: the charm and character of a heritage home, coupled with the convenience and luxury of modern design.
