A striking study in old and new, this free-standing residence has been reworked with a strong architectural sensibility, where original Victorian detail gives way to crisp contemporary living spaces. The contrast is deliberate, with the intimacy of the original rooms opening into light-filled interiors defined by timber, glass and a strong connection to the courtyard garden. Cleverly considered proportions make the most of volume, natural light and outlook, resulting in a home that feels distinctive yet highly liveable, with a natural relationship between its interior spaces and leafy surrounds. Set within an enviable North Fitzroy location, it offers an inviting place to call home.
