A complete renovation and extension that transformed a tired Bellarine Peninsula cottage into a stunning modern family home. The Coatsworth Street project showcases SQ Builders' ability to blend coastal character with contemporary living - retaining the charm of the original roofline while delivering a bright, open-plan interior that feels brand new from the ground up.
Fresh Weatherboard cladding in crisp white, new Colorbond roofing, and a warm timber deck create a street presence that's relaxed yet refined. New timber fencing frames the property with privacy and warmth, while the generous rear yard offers plenty of room for the family to grow into.
Step inside and the transformation speaks for itself. A vast open-plan kitchen, dining and living space is anchored by wide-plank hardwood timber flooring, soaring ceilings with recessed lighting, and a sleek white kitchen featuring an island bench, stone benchtops, and full-height cabinetry. Stacker sliding doors flood the space with natural light and connect seamlessly to the rear deck and yard beyond.
The hardwood timber deck is a standout feature - oiled to a rich, warm finish and built to last. Every detail was seen through to completion, right down to the finishing coats applied on-site by the SQ Builders team.
