McGrath Street, Castlemaine

 

The McGrath Street project involved creative reuse of an early Victorian brick cottage in a state of disrepair. Works involved considerable conservation works to the original heritage cottage, retaining and reinstating original features.  A modest addition has been added to the rear of the cottage, creating a relaxed contemporary living area that takes advantage of views to the existing building and the site.  Simple passive solar design principles have been employed to maintain a comfortable year-round living environment.
