Original House Built 1958 with alterations in 1966, 1977, 1980s and 2019.
This extension to an existing 1950s dwelling follows on from a series of alterations made to this house to create a Nanna flat that is both private and part of the multi-generational family home. The passively designed extension includes an open style bedroom and living area, bathroom and laundry with deck adjacent to the Providence Valley Rivulet. The new form takes reference from the existing house, maintaining views for the first floor and angled to create a courtyard for main house and privacy for the extension. Featuring triple glazed windows, a fully insulated concrete slab and mechanical heat recovery ventilation among other clever solutions, this extension stays comfortable all year round.
