This project comprises the renovation of a relatively old, worn-down dwelling. Where most people would probably rather have considered a total demolition, the proud owner of this now beautiful family home, decided to get professional advice and by doing alterations and additions, convert to the original building into something special. Kanoneiland is a warm area, so we decided on high ceilings and a central placed evaporated water cooling system which serves the entire dwelling. The dwelling comprises a main bedroom with a large dress room and en suite bathroom, three other bedrooms, each with its own dress room and en-suite bathroom, large open-plan dining, lounge and kitchen areas, a separate scullery and an indoor entertainment area with a bar and braai area. From the entertainment area, sliding and fold-away stack doors opens onto the pool area. The existing outbuilding was converted into a small, private gym and guest bedroom with an en suite bathroom. A three-car garage was added as a new addition on the site.
