Renovation Project Overview
Summit Renovations helped our clients in Rockingham transform their single-storey home into a stunning two-storey retreat, offering them breathtaking ocean views just a few hundred meters from the surf. With a growing family, the need for more space and some separation between the parents and teenage children was important to the clients. Summit Renovations delivered a modular second-storey addition that was built off-site and installed in just one day, minimising disruption and providing the family with a protected roof while the final touches were completed. The result is a sensational parents’ retreat and a home with sweeping ocean views that perfectly balances family needs and relaxation.
Key Insights
- The main goal was to create a second-storey addition to take advantage of the ocean views while also providing more space and a parents’ retreat for the growing family.
- The modular construction allowed the structure to be delivered and installed in one day, which reduced the time the family had to deal with disruption and exposure to the elements.
- The second storey features a luxurious parents’ retreat, including a master suite and living area, both with full-height windows to capture the stunning ocean views.
- The renovation process ensured that the family was able to stay in their home while the final stages, such as connecting services and installing the staircase, were completed with minimal disruption.
Second-Storey Renovation Project Goals
The goal of the second-storey renovation was to create a private retreat for the parents while adding value to the home through sensational ocean views. With teenage children at home, the clients wanted a space that provided separation from the rest of the family, ensuring peace and privacy. The parents envisioned a space where they could unwind after a long day of work, taking in the views and enjoying the natural light that flooded the new living area and master suite. The design of the second storey was focused on providing the best use of space, while also respecting the needs of the entire family.
Design & Development Process
The clients chose a modular second-storey addition, as opposed to a second storey built in-situ, which was built off-site in a controlled environment before being delivered and installed in just one day. This approach allowed for a quicker installation process and allowed the family to live in the home throughout the final installation phases. The modular second storey renovation minimised disruption to their day to day life and allowed them to avoid moving into the competitive rental market. Once the modular second storey was in place, our team took the time to connect services, install the staircase, and complete the finishing touches.
The second storey features a spacious parents’ retreat, designed with relaxation and comfort in mind. Full-height windows in both the living area and master suite frame the sweeping ocean views, bringing in plenty of natural light and creating a serene space. The design also ensured that the new floor plan allowed for the separation of the parents’ space from the teenagers’ areas, promoting privacy for everyone in the family.
Throughout the design process, Senior Designer, Deb Pearcey, kept the clients closely involved, ensuring that every detail of the new space met their needs. Deb provided guidance on design decisions, helping them choose materials and finishes that would complement the beautiful ocean surroundings while enhancing the overall functionality of the home.
Conclusion
The second-storey addition was completed in just one day, with the roof structure providing protection for the family while the final steps of the renovation were carried out. The result is a beautiful new living space that offers both ocean views and privacy. The parents’ retreat is now the perfect place to relax and enjoy their surroundings after work, with a luxurious master suite and living area that make the most of the breathtaking views. The family is thrilled with the outcome, and the new addition has not only enhanced their lifestyle but also increased the home’s overall value.
With Summit Renovations’ expert project management and innovative modular approach, the clients were able to enjoy the benefits of their new second storey without the extended disruption typically associated with such a project. The family is now enjoying their transformed home, with more space for everyone and a dedicated area where the parents can unwind and take in the ocean breeze.
