Building Addition

Suburban sophisticate

This sun-soaked four-bedroom villa in Herne Bay has undergone an extensive makeover. And the results have made life in this highly desirable location even more attractive. The picture-perfect exterior, complete with white picket fence, is fresh and vibrant in a new coat of paint.

Behind the scenes, it’s all about the modern updates and wide-open spaces. The open-plan kitchen-dining-living space is designed for high-end entertaining and laid-back evenings in front of the fire. Painted timber flooring echoes the exterior aesthetic. Soaring ceilings amplify the feeling of space and natural light. Clerestories capture extra rays. The dining space has a lowered ceiling and overlooks the pool. Glass sliders create a seamless connection to the updated alfresco space.

All clean lines and contemporary conveniences, the kitchen is a dream. Secret recipes will stay that way thanks to the exquisitely equipped scullery. Four bedrooms and two bathrooms are beautifully in keeping with this superb makeover.
