Marcus Road Residence

This Mornington Peninsula hideaway is an elevated 1970s homestead with a new lease on life. The floorpan was reconfigured to better take advantage of orientation; the nucleus of the home now awash with northern light and alive with a natural flow of movement.

The original kitchen was retired and relocated to become a new central feature. Flanked on either side by timber clad boxes, the entire general living area is given delineated structure while retaining lines of sight and openness. The boxes cleverly conceal a scullery, bar and cloak cupboard, and, combined with angled track lights and sparse white walls, evoke a sense of floating walls akin to a gallery – a perfect environment for modernist art pieces.

Grey concrete benchtops and sleek lines are complemented by white joinery, while the grain of dark European oak floors and original pitched roof recalls the building’s heritage and country vernacular. At one end an exposed brick wall was lime washed to create a textural grey wall as a point of difference for an intimate concluding space used for relaxed family gatherings.
