House Tour :: A Renovated Modern Victorian With The Most Gorgeous Kitchen

At some point in the past year, our family went from dining at a "formal" restaurant to a breakfast nook for most meals. Of course, this may be related to the fact that we are not fully entertained, but part of the ease and convenience of eating in the kitchen has become increasingly attractive. So my question is, is it possible to connect the dining space with the kitchen in a way that is formal enough for guests and comfortable enough for breakfast? Well, my friends, I think we have found it. This 19th century Victorian house in Sydney has been renovated and features many beautiful details, preserved charm and thoughtful design, but the kitchen and adjoining dining room are my favorite rooms. The seamless transition between the two spaces (note how the backsplash and the counter create a continuous line connecting the two!), although there is still a slight separation at the entrance, it is simply perfect. The two spaces also use different ceiling treatments, and the partition wall allows this to happen without making you uncomfortable. But it is a custom curved island, which is really the best for me in terms of cooking. Remember my words, this is a trend we will see more! The traditional ogee edge and the use of different materials from the rest of the kitchen (brass and oak hardware!) adapt itself to the style of this piece of furniture, giving people a re-used antique feel, while the space can be personalized... On the other hand, the cabinets are painted with Dulux "Heifer" lacquer, which complements the oak beautifully, while the modern edges blend with the clean lines of the rest of the kitchen. Every space in the house is a fusion of tradition and new things, which is really charming. In the restaurant, I like that they chose contrasting dark wood finishes for the tables and chairs and dark leather benches. While breaking through the sea of ​​oak trees, it brings a bit of sophistication to the room. The way the bench is embedded in the wall has more storage space and is also great and practical. Chapter As for the rest of the house... Well, it has many buildings and beautiful details for you to save in your favorites. I have always liked antique furniture like this, especially at the entrance to set the tone for the home. The huge mirror really fills the walls and creates the illusion of more space at the entrance. This is a bit big for me, but I appreciate the way it works. In addition, if you look closely, you will find that the front door is painted with a beautiful shade of green. Hope we can see more such small details! has a secondary entrance. I think it might be through the garage and through the laundry room, where there is more practical storage space. The countertop as a stone surface is very elegant, like a wet layer that drips onto the surface I imagined. Sadly, the living room is my least favorite space. The furniture is modern and the style is a bit cold, although it seems comfortable. It's tucked away in the narrower back of the house and I wish it had more vintage accents or details. The home bathroom is also relatively modern, but the tiles are so beautiful, I really don't care! Use more traditional hardware accessories to help balance it out, and I also like the curved backsplash detail on the marble behind the sink! The custom details of the recessed bench are in good contact with the panels behind the headboard of the master bedroom. However, I once again found myself wishing to have more items that reflect the warmth of the kitchen and dining room. To be fair, some of them may be the editing of these photos, and the delicate cream on the linen bedding did not appear at all. I see that maintaining the color unity of these details helps to create a cohesive space, but it can also be said that it all blends together. which one do you like more? In the closet, we finally got another dose of wood in what appeared to be the shoe storage area. I will film the whole closet in natural light! Finally, we have the main bathroom. My God, this house has so many windows! ! When a designer comes up with a clever way to float a mirror in a window, I always notice it because it can help solve layout problems when designing a bathroom. I think it does a good job here, and the mirror's proportions mimic a slightly smaller window.
