Cute and quaint from the street; this C1900 single-fronted cottage is proof that first impressions tend to tell only half the story, such is the magic of this maisonette-reimagined on a parcel that keeps going and going and ends in prized rear lane access.

In between is an inspired transformation that turned the tired and weary original home into a flawless, white and bright introduction to a spectacular barn-style open-plan addition.

Soaring to almost six metres high, the sky-lit extension bounces bundles of natural light from engineered timber floors to its textured white brick walls and onto a custom kitchen.

And with a sea of stone, an ultra-modern profile, expansive island, the latest Fisher and Paykel appliances, a butler’s pantry and a white-on-white colour scheme, it’s nothing short of a class act.

A long hallway only amplifies the unhindered flow from front to back, feeding along the way three bedrooms, including a master with walk-in robe and ensuite – one of two fully-tiled bathrooms, each with underfloor heating.

Speaking of the back, those barns-style ceilings follow the same course outside, where a timber-decked alfresco pavilion is plumbed for an outdoor kitchen and keen to host that house warming dinner.

The rear double garage strikes its own dramatic figure, casting a black backdrop to the landscaped, private rear yard. The backdrop to one very special transformation.
