This 2011 Mornington Peninsula home is now the classiest of contemporary coastal retreats, but that’s a far cry from how it felt before a renovation. “Everything was looking tired, old and outdated,” says homeowner Rose. “The children have grown into adults and we wanted to erase the years of wear and tear.” Enter interior designer Silvia Roldan, who helped redesign the home to suit Rose, her husband Max, their two children in their early 20s, and two dogs.
“We really relied on Silvia from Studio Esar as I wasn’t sure exactly which direction to take,” says Rose. “We love what she’s put together.” Creating curved walls and sourcing a specific marble for the kitchen were lofty goals, but the result is a triumph and the couple are grateful for the tradespeople who made it happen. “It’s so elegant, light and airy,” says Rose. “It fits in perfectly with the water views.”
The makeover
Plans for a more modest home makeover turned into a complete interior renovation once the ball got rolling. “It is far more than we originally intended to do,” shares Rose. “But we’re very happy we did it as we’ve achieved a complete and beautiful result.”
A new and expanded kitchen was a top priority. “I asked for the kitchen to be extended across the back wall to give us some extra space,” says Rose. Other rooms that underwent a complete overhaul include the main bedroom and three bathrooms.
