Mosman Heritage Home Transformation
A heritage Mosman home reimagined through a multi-stage renovation and careful collaboration. Thoughtful upgrades bring modern luxury to a Federation classic while respecting its history. A complete transformation that connects architecture, landscape and family living.
This beautiful Federation home in Mosman was transformed through a multi-stage renovation spanning several years. Working closely with our client, we reimagined the entire property -inside, outside and underground - to create a refined, functional family home that blends heritage character with contemporary luxury.
With Mosman’s strict heritage controls, every decision required careful consideration. Even the kerb and gutter were listed items, meaning the renovation demanded an approach that respected the original architecture while elevating the liveability of the home. We managed to successfully meet Mosman Council Guidelines quickly, allowing us to start sooner than expected.
The project began with major landscaping works and a complete reconfiguration of the ground floor. The kitchen was relocated to connect directly with the pool and garden, turning the outdoors into a natural extension of everyday living. The interiors were redesigned with a focus on craftsmanship and material quality, including Bianco Carrera marble features throughout the bathrooms.
To unlock the home’s full potential, we excavated the lower ground floor and added a large garage, gym, TV and games room, and a 2,000-bottle climate-controlled wine cellar. These new spaces create effortless functionality for a busy household and give the home a sense of calm, spaciousness and direction.
Throughout the process, collaboration with the client was central. The result is a home that honours its heritage, elevates its modern-day comforts and supports family life with both elegance and practicality.
