Comments (11)I like the first one also. Mine is similar but a lot older. It is a perfect space for a vintage couple of chairs and a table. A place to chat amongst lush plants, I think. And I found this great vintage wall chart from 100 per cent New Zealand (http://100percentnz.co.nz/collections/wall-charts), which suits the space. Erstwhile in Australia (http://www.erstwhile.co/) does some similar charts. The retro-style maps are a real conversation starter....See Morewanting to create new entry & deck
Comments (6)Like oklouise , I'm trying to work out what you are wanting to achieve ? Do you have a handicapped person living there -- its not clear to me . A ramp down the right side is going to look funny IMO -- the section slopes , but a flat ramp back to the driveway/garage would cover the bottom couple of inches of that picture window and the sill .A sloping ramp would just be wrong and weird , angles that would look wrong . It looks like the existing terrace is 2700 deep -- its hard to tell if 'behind' that is an entry foyer ? If the terrace isn't deep enough , I'd tend to try and go IN , not out . I hope you take this as constructive , but the existing doors look more like factory doors than house ones . So I'd go 'inwards' , and do an 'impress the neighbours' double solid full height timber doors , with stained timber picture windows either side . On that theme , I'd also change the 3 picture windows to stained timber frames too , and the greeny grey shiplap I'd try and strip and stain -- if not possible , paint in apricot or lemon or light red , THEN do the fascia boards in a really bright shade the same ( bright orange , sunshine yellow or fire engine red ) . The grey outdoor tiles I'd try and concrete stain ( I probably shouldn't admit this , but I once got a good charcoal oil-based outdoor paint , thinned it ( from a 20 litre thing of turps ) about 2 to 1 , and brushed the outdoor tiles twice over 2 days -- it soaked in well , wasn't slippery , and lasted well -- at least well enough to sell the property a couple of months later haha ) . So $20k instead of $100k , less matching to do , but there is still the problem of the ramp . . . . . ....See MoreFeedback on floor plan and opportunities
Comments (9)The house and alfresco looks really nice -- you have done really well buying that IMO ! I'd leave it as it is , at least in the 1-2 year time span . Is the shed with a roller door a garage ? The main reason I ask is just a thought in that it looks like you get to the alfresco through the laundry by the looks of it -- without knowing more , I wonder about moving the laundry at some stgae to the 'garage' , maybe a bigger door , maybe make the existing laundry into the dining area or a study or office ( I would have suggested even moving the kitchen there , but it looks really good where it is -- or maybe I should say too new to justify moving ) . Hope that makes sense ....See MoreVictorian terrace transformation in Sydney
Comments (9)Erskineville is a lovely suburb where it is nice to see old homes (however challenging) preserved and updated. What an awesome job with clever design to make the most out of the space, even managing to fit in a bath where you can star gaze....See MoreJen
