Grey LYNN COTTAGE
The complete renovation and addition of a city-fringe workers’ cottage in Grey Lynn, Auckland.
Returning from abroad to raise their growing family, our clients purchased this character home with ambitious plans for transformation. Working closely with heritage planners throughout the resource consent process, we reshaped the street frontage and introduced a new entrance, while adding a contemporary rear living wing, compact workspace, laundry and ensuite.
This Grey Lynn cottage renovation remains sympathetic to the home’s original form and detailing, while introducing generous natural light and open-plan living suited to modern family life. The result is a refined Auckland heritage renovation designed to serve its owners for generations to come.
