Second Storey Extension In Richmond

Our client’s home was a tired single fronted Victorian on a small parcel of land 144m² with 2 bedrooms, bathroom and a very small area for kitchen, living and dining.

The new design and construction work involved keeping the front 2 bedrooms and demolishing the remainder.

Restored was the arched hallway with high ceilings and polished boards and the period fireplaces in each of the front two bedrooms and added supplementary storage to each of the bedrooms.

Walking down the hallway we included a European laundry, stairs to the 1st floor and the larger open plan kitchen dining and living space with plenty of storage.

The 1st floor has a large main bedroom with an abundance of storage, a bathroom and a fourth bedroom/study.

History Of Richmond

Richmond, 3 km east of central Melbourne, has been a residential, industrial and residential, and latterly a more residential, suburb. Until 1994 Richmond was also a municipality. Its western boundary, Punt Road, adjoined Melbourne city and its eastern boundary was the Yarra River, across from leafy Hawthorn. The river curved around to form Richmond’s southern boundary, opposite South Yarra and Toorak. The northern boundary, Victoria Parade, adjoins Collingwood. Richmond was named after Richmond Hill, London. Like its London counterpart, it has Kew close by. The suburb of Richmond is part of the former municipality, less Cremorne in the south and Burnley in the east

Richmond has a prominent hill on its western boundary, known as Richmond Hill but also as Dockers Hill. It is surmounted by four church spires. The land falls away to the river in the east, to the Collingwood flat in the north and to the flat land of Burnley in the south.
