Named after clients, Jack and Jess, this project was a full renovation to bring their new beachside home in Austinmer in line with their tastes and needs.

Cleverly thought out by architect Jessica Bradley from BASE (Building Architecture Susatianable Environments) a new floor plan was devised into the existing footprint to create a new master bed with ensuite and walk in robes taking in views of the beach, an additional 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a laundry and a guest suite or home office.

New joinery was installed throughout using a mixture of new age veneers and poly in coastal tones, with Patagonia stone benchtops supplied by Euro Marble.

To ensure a large home fit for entertaining, the kitchen was opened up to a new north facing outdoor area that features a Blackbutt timber deck and awning. The result is a secluded and shaded space by the pool that maximises views of the stunning Illawarra escarpment.

To create yet further space for guests, the original garage was transformed into a new 1-bedroom cottage complete with a kitchen and lounge room.
