Historical renovation project
Melbourne has plenty of older historical homes, many dating from the gold boom times.
A popular renovation for these historical homes is to reatin the front facade, while ripping off the rear of the home. In this way, one can install modern features for comfort and convenience such as, a display entrance area, extra bedrooms, an upper storey room, a new bathroom, laundry,open plan kichen or living room, a large feature sliding door window, leading to an entertainment deck.
In this way, one is opening up the home for more light, space, comfort and convenience. Linking the rear living area to the garden is particularly popular. Older historical homes often have small windows, dark hallways, lack of light and warmth. A renovation of an historical home can pay big revaluation dividends over time, as they are not building any more new historical homes.
