Melbourne Sleek and Modern Home Makeover
When the homeowners wanted a sleek and modern makeover that could grace the covers of any prestigious lifestyle magazine, our renovation builder Melbourne stepped in to take on the challenge.
The practical result - a stunning contemporary home that received a full makeover alongside an extension for more living space.
The emotional result - a sensational space that exudes style, class, design-brilliance and a unique sense of tranquillity. Every detail has been meticulously chosen to create an harmonious flow from room to room.
New floor-to-ceiling feature windows were added to allow natural light to flood into the home and offer stunning views of the spacious garden. This feature is perfectly integrated into the kitchen, where an expansive quartz-topped island blends into a natural wood seating area for ten people.
The open-plan design is enhanced by the unique choice of a burnished concrete floor as a standout feature. The concrete is treated and polished to achieve a smooth, glossy texture that brings out the natural beauty of the unique patterns and subtle colour variations. Dark grey wall tiles add a sophisticated finish.
A few easy steps takes the family from the kitchen into the living room, a light and airy space, stylishly fitted with a large couch and a wall-mounted TV. A cosy fire place set against an attractive brick wall offers a lovely golden glow and warmth for chilly winter nights. Comfy beanbags can be used to admire the view, and can be moved closer to fire to create a casual atmosphere after a busy day.
The main bedroom was totally re-imagined into a haven of relaxation and serenity. It now features a minimalist design with a stylish low bed, a distressed-grey panelled backdrop, pendant lights and a matching burnished concrete floor. Adding to the upmarket lifestyle are floor-to-ceiling cabinets and an open robe for easy access to clothing.
The luxurious bathroom comes complete with free-standing soaking tub, a long wooden vanity and ceiling-to-floor windows. Modern vertical tiles add a sense of height and spaciousness, and combined with a large mirror, create a polished atmosphere that is both functional and visually exciting.
Outside, the deck was enhanced with timber cladding that allows the homeowners to relax, entertain, soak up the sunshine, or admire the night sky while enjoying an outdoor meal with family and friends.
Throughout this luxurious home, the owners have added their unique touch by choosing luscious plants in decorative containers, modern wall art and sentimental ornaments. They even have an exquisite rare piano, where a budding musician can set the mood while guests enjoy a meal.
By combining sleek lines, a grey and black colour palette and contrasting wood tones, Smith & Sons Melbourne has yet another ecstatic client!
