Nestled within the Wagga Wagga Conservation Area, this beautifully renovated residence seamlessly blends heritage character with contemporary enhancements.
The renovation centres on a carefully considered addition that respects the home’s historical context while introducing modern elements to improve functionality and everyday comfort. The extension features weatherboard cladding, stucco render, and finely detailed pergolas and awnings, thoughtfully echoing the original architectural language while integrating new materials with precision and restraint.
Beyond its aesthetic contribution, the addition significantly enhances the liveability of both interior and outdoor spaces, creating improved flow, usability, and connection to the garden setting.
The result is a refined and welcoming home that honours its heritage while confidently embracing contemporary living.
The project was recognised for its outstanding design and craftsmanship, receiving Riverina Home of the Year, Renovation of the Year, and Bathroom of the Year at the 2017 HIA Regional Housing Awards.
