Lakeview Lighthouse
Coastal Lifestyle

With the opportunity to capture picturesque views of Narrabeen Lake, this elevated family home was perfectly placed to benefit from a first floor addition and enjoy a more relaxed footprint. An expansive parents retreat and light-filled sunroom were at the heart of the design.

Overview

For many growing families, a secondary living space can transform their lifestyle. For our client, creating a dedicated first floor sunroom with floor to ceiling windows has capitalised on the lake view aspect with an abundance of natural light and ventilation. A parents retreat adjoining the sunroom was a must-have, providing a chill zone to escape the family hustle and bustle.

Downstairs, the vision was for a bright and breezy open plan kitchen & living area opening to a view-oriented deck. A vaulted dining area ceiling and bank of windows has added to the sense of airiness and space, with a flood of natural light. From there, you enter a stunning covered deck, with a slatted awning and a white and grey colour palette adding extra freshness.

"We started our project with no knowledge of the building industry and renovation process. Hence we were looking for a company that was competent, reliable but also honest and transparent at the same time for our major home transformation. Having heard all kinds of bad stories from our friends around their own experiences with builders, we were anxious to choose a company. Turns out we were very fortunate to have found Timbaworx. The planning, the building process and the final result were outstanding. While like in every project not everything ran to plan, issues were addressed immediately and dealt with in a professional manner. The outcome exceeded our expectations. We therefore cannot recommend Timbaworx strongly enough."
