This grand old Mt Lawley property was in the Heritage Precinct which meant the front facade was unable to change.
A two storey addition to the rear of the property meant going underground to add a theatre room and gym, a split level added another bedroom and then upstairs a new kitchen, dining, lounge, bedroom and two new bathrooms.
Recycled floorboards, window frames and roof tiles where used throughout.
The ECO Warehouse was designed by Etica Studio. Urbanarc construction has recently teamed up with Etica studios offering this eco friendly designed package to prospective clients.
