Transformative renovation of a heritage-listed split-level home in Bardon.

This split-level home renovation in Bardon showcases the perfect balance between heritage preservation and modern luxury. As the façade was heritage-listed, all upgrades had to be made without altering the external front. To bring the worn-down home up to today’s standards, the structure was carefully lifted, a new level was constructed beneath, and the entire interior was rebuilt — with every element brand new, except for the front.
Inside, the home boasts five bedrooms and three bathrooms, including a master suite with walk-in robe and private powder room. A wide entry leads into an open-plan living space with sliding door access to a timber deck that overlooks a creek reserve. The upper deck is fully enclosed with glass balustrading, while the lower deck features a built-in timber bench — creating multiple zones for relaxing and entertaining.
Standout features include a media room with a louvre window facing the creek and park, a second bathroom with a freestanding bath, and a bedroom with a custom bench seat overlooking the main street. The interior staircase is a visual centrepiece with a feature chandelier, and bathrooms include design touches such as linear cladding walls behind the mirrors.
Externally, the home offers secure off-street parking with a single garage, an additional car space, and an automatic sliding gate. Despite tight design constraints, the final result is a seamless blend of functionality, heritage, and timeless design — executed to the highest standard.
