Mount Eliza House Situated in the beautiful seaside suburb of Mount Eliza on the Mornington Peninsula, close to the tranquil Moondah Beach. A single storey detached home needed to adapt to address a growing family.

A new main bedroom, ensuite, walk in robe and lounge was desired. A new courtyard was formed with the extension which provided more privacy to the occupants and north facing glazing framed views of the garden and new pool

The contemporary extension used a different material palette to compliment the existing house and harnessed the site topography, stepping down along it’s length to the lower garden

Full height glazing along the length of the new extension maximises views to the new courtyard, pool and garden, as you move through the different spaces

The interior palette was simple and understated to provide reflection of shadows and daylight

The new main bedroom is situated at the end of the extension giving the feeling of a parental oasis connected to nature
