“A seamless renovation experience delivered with precision and care.”

— Lee Anne and Andrew, The WildWood Home Owners —

A Major Renovation

Nestled in the rolling hinterland, this beautiful old Queenslander was lovingly transformed to create space, connection and lifestyle for a growing family.

 

Andrew and LA approached us with a vision: preserve the character of their original home while extending it to better suit modern family living and year-round entertaining.

 

The clients wanted more space, seamless indoor–outdoor flow, and a home that would bring their extended family together. Entertainment was a focus, but so was retaining the heart of the heritage structure.

 

Working closely with Andrew and LA from the design stage through to completion, we carried out a full transformation that included:

  • Extension of the existing Queenslander to suit family living and entertaining
  • Restoration of heritage features to maintain the home’s original character
  • Major earthworks and tiered landscaping to create usable outdoor zones
  • Custom driveway construction for access and functionality
  • Designer finishes throughout, blending traditional materials with contemporary comfort

Tiered Landscaping & Earthworks

The sloping site was transformed with terraced levels, retaining solutions, and garden integration for usability and visual impact.

From concept through construction, we partnered closely with the clients to bring their vision to life.
Every decision —from layout to finishes—was guided by how the family lives and entertains.
The result is a custom home that honours its history while creating new memories for generations to come.
