An Award-Winning Fusion Of Heritage Architecture And Cutting-Edge Design In Clovelly
The creative revival of this historic treasure by DM2 Architecture celebrates the past while bringing a whole new dimension to the Flemish Renaissance style home. One of a pair built c1888, the two-storey home links the old with the new via a double-volume extension that achieves a light-box effect and integrates seamlessly with the north facing garden. Walls of glass flood the interiors in sunshine while a lush internal atrium brings a sense of life and vitality into the heart of the home. Considered attention to detail achieves a sense of harmony with reclaimed timber and exposed brickwork sitting alongside polished concrete and Calacatta Oro marble for a textural feel that is both robust and refined. Designed with entertaining in mind, a custom kitchen extends to an alfresco lounge while a lower level bedroom has been designed to function as a home office/library. Winner of an MBA Excellence Award in 2016, the home is not only functional and beautiful but has been designed to tread lightly on the environment and is within easy reach of Clovelly Beach and Gordons Bay and just 300m to Clovelly village.
