Living area

An upholstered sofa provides plenty of comfortable seating for the family and their guests without cluttering the space. Try Freedom for a similar modular sofa. Warm timber accessories echo the tones of the feature wall – timber turned bowls from Mark Tuckey offer a similar feel.

The weatherboard feature wall

This wall lends the home a sense of heritage. The home's previous owner found the boards wrapped in newspaper in the shed and decided to use them. According to him, they’re from the original cottage that was here in the 1800s. For a similar look, paint new timber boards with Porter’s Paints’ Milk paint.

Kitchen

The rustic weatherboards continue into the kitchen, adding character to the slick 2-pac polyurethane finished space. Quantum Quartz engineered stone benchtops in Alpine White were a bargain renovation buy. A blackbutt breakfast table and yellow ‘No.18’ bentwood chairs from Thonet, make casual dining a breeze.

Kitchen

Nickel pendant lights from Ici et Là bring a touch of timeworn charm to the space.

Kid's room

The playful bedspread is from Dwell Studio and the superhero artwork is by Jane Fontane, from United Galleries.

Master bedroom

A chic palette creates a restful retreat and embodies sophisticated modern style. Mementos from the owners' past life in New York feature in the space. The Flou bed was shipped all the way from New York and the photographs above the bed, featuring American model Stephanie Seymour, are from a campaign the owners shot with renowned photographer Juergen Teller.
