Nestled in the prestigious suburb of Annandale, this charming site had many characteristics worthy of retaining. Sydesign's brief from the client insisted on the inclusion of a rear renovation to create a modern kitchen with dining area capable of entertaining large numbers of family and friends.

With consideration of the heritage conservation location of the terrace in mind, Sydesign in consultation with the client, was reluctant to alter the front or upper level of the house. Instead clever interior design features and furnishing ideas were used to open up what was once small dark spaces, to light filled areas with a sense of space.

The main feature of this home is the kitchen, with a bold colour in the floating island bench complimented by a sleek butlers pantry. The hotel style bar and open plan dining space adds to the stylish, modern vibe of the indoor/outdoor entertaining zone which is unique amongst terrace homes of its kind.

By incorporating white polished timber floors with a pallet of bright accent colours in the joinery, the Sydesign interiors team have created a character filled home which compliment the traditional heritage elements of the home.
