William Street

House - Single Residency

2024 - Current (CC Phase)

Paddington, Sydney

Woollahra Municipal Council

In collaboration with John Normyle Design & Noff Haus Studio

This project is for rear addition and a garage with a studio loft to be added to the rear of the property, to be situated on Albert Street. The intent was to retain the existing facade on William Street, this was due to the Heritage Conservation Area that the projects sits within.

The works to the main house involved upgrading the existing kitchen/ laundry and bathroom facilities through a boundary to boundary extension on the ground floor. Then across the backyard we are creating a new garage with a studio above that is designed to wrap around the existing tree that is to be retained, as a key design element as it provides shade and amenity to the backyard area.

As the process has been delayed due to taking the plans to the L&EC. We are hoping to retain as many of the key design features as possible while we work towards a proposal that can benifit all the stakeholders.
