Nestled in the Mornington Peninsula bushlands, a transformation occurred at this secluded one storey rancher. The additions blend into the green surroundings, while maintaining the natural environment directly around the home. The roof was completely replaced above a newly formed open kitchen and living space. Our team were involved in the replacement of the flat roof with an open vaulted ceiling featuring scissor trusses, built with Australian hardwood timber suitable for Australian environmental conditions. The proximity of the natural bushland was maintained through keeping the original ground floor wall layout. The additional storey utilises the existing structure by marrying in the new timber structure with the existing brick walls.
