MT ALBERT BUNGALOW

The comprehensive renovation of a once-neglected 1920s bungalow, thoughtfully reimagined for modern family living.

When our clients purchased this run-down former rental, it required significant restoration — from subfloor repairs to a complete spatial reconfiguration. Their vision was clear: open-plan living and dining, vaulted ceilings, three generous bedrooms, and the addition of a family bathroom and private ensuite.

We carefully restructured the layout to create a light-filled central living zone with heightened ceilings that enhance volume and connection. Behind discreet pocket doors in the kitchen, a cleverly integrated scullery, larder and boot room provide practical, space-efficient storage — ideal for a busy household.

Throughout this character home renovation, previously stripped detailing was reinstated to honour the bungalow’s heritage, while new openings invite abundant natural light and create a seamless flow between spaces. The result is a refined yet highly functional family home that balances heritage charm with contemporary comfort.
