Elm Street

Northcote

This home began as a burnt, tired shell — charred walls, collapsing structure, and decades of wear. Today, it stands reborn. The focus was simple: restore its soul, not erase it. Every surviving heritage element was treated with care, allowing the home’s original character to shine again while gaining the comfort, safety, and efficiency of a modern build.

Crafting Renewal with Heart

One of the most loved features is the original brickwork — weathered, imperfect, full of history. Instead of hiding it, it's celebrated. Paired with new landscaping, fresh planting, and soft natural colours, the contrast between nature’s randomness and heritage texture gives the home a grounded, timeless warmth. It feels both mature and youthful at the same time.

Inside, the bathrooms, kitchen, and living spaces blend modern materials with the charm of the old structure. Marble tones, warm timbers, soft whites, and matte finishes sit comfortably beside period details and restored elements. The house now carries the elegance of its past while functioning as a refined, contemporary family home — heritage renewed, beautifully and respectfully.

Working with an exceptional builder, rebuilt this home detail by detail — mouldings, trims, cornices, float-glass windows, heritage lighting, and custom joinery. Nothing was rushed. Nothing was guessed. The craftsmanship shows in every corner: crisp lines, perfect symmetry, and heritage profiles brought back to life with modern precision.
