Duplex Renovation and Extension

Transforming space to meet the needs of a growing family with functionality and style

Project Overview

This duplex renovation and extension project on the Gold Coast, Oxenford involved the transformation of an existing structure to maximise space, modernise a dated home, and enhance functionality and aesthetic appeal.

Our focus was to elevate the property while allowing a family to live in the house during the entire three-month construction period.

Duplex house elevation:

  • Replaced the sagging ceiling with a new structure to ensure safety and improve visual appeal.
  • Installed parquet flooring made from a robust 14 mm thick board, adding elegance and durability to the living space.

Duplex extension:

  • Transformed a portion of the garage into a third bedroom, optimising the use of space to accommodate family needs.
  • Extended the kitchen and laundry area by using the remaining garage space, integrating modern conveniences with design.

Upgraded amenities:

  • Renovated the bathroom and toilet to feature contemporary fixtures and fittings.
  • Installed brand-new kitchen and laundry closets, complemented by custom-made concrete countertops, providing both style and functionality.

Exterior enhancements

  • Levelled the side yard to construct a well-designed carport capable of housing four cars, enhancing both utility and property value.
  • Completed comprehensive landscaping tasks, including building retaining walls and garden beds, to create an inviting outdoor environment.
During the renovation, we strategically planned the work sequences to ensure minimal disruption, allowing the family to comfortably live in the house throughout the process. The duplex extension and renovation significantly increased the property’s market value by adding essential features and modern aesthetics.
