Spectacular Remodel with a Garden Haven Inspired by Palm Springs

In a superb collaboration between builder and interior designer, the sensational re-invention of this classic miner’s cottage will wow you at every eye-catching turn. Behind a succulent garden, Blackbutt deck and re-clad façade, inside is all about crisp décor, Havwoods oak floorboards, terrazzo countertops, clean lines, and brilliant natural light courtesy of cleverly placed skylights. Three robed bedrooms and a Fibonacci stone-finished bathroom radiate off the gun-barrel hallway before the open plan living space reveals itself at the rear. Here a 4.3m raked ceiling adds a sense of space and drama while oversized stacker doors open to the cacti-filled garden that will immediately transport you to Palm Springs. From the weekly 5km Park Run, to rowing on the river, and waterside paths to the harbour and Honeysuckle, there’s no shortage of things to do in harbourside Carrington.
