Catalina Architecture were commissioned to design a well-lit sunroom to this grade II listed property, within the envelope of existing dilapidated outbuildings. Linking to the main house through a part-existing opening at ground floor level, and through what was a cupboard, the physical link is flat-roofed in order that the main glazed/slate roof of the new element would be visually subservient to the existing, and also not detract from the single mass of the house. Contrasting with the low-ceiling, relatively dark rooms of the main house, the new space is bright and airy, providing good views of the garden.

When the owners moved into this Bondi garden it was concrete and brick pavers. The hard standing was taken up and over the past year, a garden for a young family has been created using sculpture focal points, new sandstone retaining walls and garden beds full of interesting plants for seasonal interest.
