Project

Barton St, Kyneton

Having the opportunity to work on a home originally built in the 1910s was something truly special. Understanding the history of the property and carefully sourcing materials that allowed the new extension to blend seamlessly with the original home was both challenging and incredibly rewarding.

One of the highlights of the project was restoring and reusing the original ceiling roses, ensuring they became part of the new extension. Our goal was for the entire home to feel as though it had been built at the same time, preserving its original character while creating a beautiful, functional home for modern living.
