.Completed Pitched Roof Rear Home Extension in Heidelberg Heights

We recently had the pleasure of completing a stunning pitched roof rear extension for a classic 1950s Heidelberg Heights home. Designed to blend seamlessly with the original cream clinker brick and terracotta tiled roof, this project transformed the home with modern functionality while respecting its character.

Rear House Extension & Single-Story Living

The project included a rear extension single story, creating a spacious living room rear extension and an open kitchen area extension. The additional space provides:

  • A bright and functional family room at the back of the house
  • A 4th bedroom for growing family needs
  • A stylish outdoor alfresco entertainment area with timber decking

Built on strip footings with timber subfloor, the extension ensures long-lasting structural integrity while seamlessly matching the existing home.

Contemporary Interiors & Renovations

Inside, the home was upgraded with modern finishes:

  • Living room rear extension with natural gas fireplace and Victorian ash timber flooring
  • Decorative cornice and paintwork matched to the original home
  • Full bathroom renovation with floor-to-ceiling tiles and frameless shower
  • Laundry renovation for functionality and style

The project demonstrates how a rear house extension can combine practical living with contemporary design, all while complementing a traditional brick home.

Outdoor Living at Its Best

The open alfresco area at the rear of the extension features durable merbau timber decking, perfect for family gatherings and entertaining. The design ensures a smooth transition between indoor and outdoor living spaces.
