murdoch villa
Our clients found a lovely villa right in the heart of Grey Lynn. While it kept a lot of its original charm, the layout didn’t really flow, and it needed more living space.
Macfie Architecture took on the challenge to completely renovate and reconfigure the interiors of this 1911 home.
In the front, we transformed the master bedroom by adding a walk-in wardrobe and an ensuite. We also created two spacious children's bedrooms and a formal lounge, plus a brand-new master bathroom.
At the back of the villa, we built a new kitchen, dining room, and living room, with custom steel doors that smoothly separate the areas. We added a covered outdoor dining space and a sleek outdoor fireplace that connects to the new concrete pool and landscaped garden.
We even created separate laundry room and bathroom that links to the pool area in the lower level.
The finished renovation provides a clear view from the front door straight through to the new entertainment wing, the pool, and the gorgeous Grey Lynn skyline.
Murdoch Villa perfectly blends heritage charm with modern living and an inner-city style.
A huge congratulations to our amazing clients for selling Murdoch Villa within just 24 hours of listing it!
