Rundown cottage that had to remain, now one quarter of an elegant house.  Using heritage principals, we added a new ‘pavilion’ to one side on the square small lot, while lifting the cottage and placing garage and laundry under it.  The cottage underwent a makeover and became a private 3 bed wing, with generous bathrooms.  A stair and entry link joins the cottage to the pavilion.  The upper pavilion is an open plan living area opening onto a front verandah and large rear deck, and has a clerestory portion over the dining to bring in northern light.  Lower pavilion has 2 bedrooms, bathroom, rumpus and more decks.  The overall result is almost like two houses, which respects the frequency of houses in Paddington, while not dominating the short street.
