The owner bought an old property with a sea view from the upper level in Central Auckland and asked us to renovate the whole building and garden.
Our aim was to keep the good quality existing materials as much as possible and use natural wooden materials to renovate the old house to be a comfortable luxurious modern home.
Point 1: Upstairs Terrace and Deck To Enjoy A Great View
Before
After
One of the main purposes for the owner to buy this property was to enjoy a great sea view.
So we renovated the old upstairs terrace and built a new deck terrace besides the upstairs living and above the garage.
Point 2: Open Plan Living, Dinning And Kitchen With Renovated Timber Flooring
Before (Living&Dinning)
After (Living&Dinning)
We removed several walls and created an open plan modern living, dinning and kitchen with a fireplace and TV above it.
People can enjoy a sea view through the large windows.
Before (Kitchen)
After (Kitchen)
We installed an island kitchen with wooden style cabinet.
Because we loved the authentic quality of the old timber
flooring (it was covered by old carpet before!!), we polished it nicely and now it looks wonderful.
