A grand entrance leads to a wide hallway, setting a tone of traditional sophistication. The front section features an impressive master bedroom and sitting room, detailed with refined heritage elements. At the home's heart, a central staircase serves as both a functional element and artistic statement, marking the transition between old and new spaces.

The project's innovative design solutions include an angled first-floor south wall and significant setbacks to meet heritage guidelines while ensuring neighbour amenity. Throughout the home, detailed shaker panelling in the kitchen and black accents create a visual dialogue with the modern dark vertical batten cladding at the rear.

The stunning central courtyard stands as the project's crown jewel, bringing natural light and openness to the heart of the home. Modern lifestyle needs are addressed through a spacious four-car garage with a studio above, while intricate architectural details – from skirting to architraves – showcase Mancini Made's renowned craftsmanship.

This residence proves that with vision and expertise, heritage and contemporary design can coexist in perfect harmony, creating a home that will remain relevant and inspiring for generations to come.
