A much loved weatherboard home in Sydney’s inner west needed an update after years of tolerance by the owners. Adding a second storey provided the required additional accommodation and living space, with a contemporary re-do of the ground floor to connect indoor and outdoor spaces seamlessly. Efficient planning has included all the mod-cons without increasing the ground floor area, and the second storey sits comfortably atop the weatherboard cottage.
