A creative collaboration between the owner, B2 Constructions and The Designory has injected a sense of light, life and joy into this grand Queen Anne Federation home with beautiful gardens by Will Dangar designed to embrace the seasons with a sparkling saltwater pool as centrepiece. Built c1915 with only ever a handful of families in ownership, 'Strathmore' rests on a private 632sqm approx in a prized pocket of Kensington. The inspired redesign honours the home's heritage by uniting the traditional front of the home with a light-filled extension and an entertainer's kitchen conceived as the social heart while the upper level is devoted to a luxurious parent's retreat. Incredible attention to detail and tasteful finishes have created a forever family home with elegant architectural detailing and high-end finishes sitting in easy harmony and crafted to stand the test of time.
