Project Ellengowan Week 14 – Final Walkthrough
February marked the end of work and client handover of Project Ellengowan in Fairy Meadow, NSW. Project Ellengowan is a coastal, Hamptons style build that took 14 weeks to complete and contains a number of special features that demonstrate the quality of work undertaken by the team at Concept Constructions.
This latest project was a major renovation and extension that involved building off the back of the existing structure and installing steel to support a huge gable ceiling and window that overlooks the back deck, pool and the iconic south coast landmark of Mount Keira. This window was delivered by the team at Hanlon Windows and is a major feature of the project, spanning 8 metres over the width of the deck. Combined with the rain sensing Velux skylights, the main entertaining area embraces the coastal theme of the project.
Inside there is a smorgasbord of additional features, include a beautifully engineered oak floor that runs throughout the heart of the home, a custom fitted Caesar Stone island bench with brushed brass fittings by ABI Interiors and a bench seat made from recycled Oregon, salvaged from the original pergola at the start of the job and biscuit joined into an internal feature. This is a particularly nice touch, tying the newly finished build to its original roots.
Project Ellengowan was a fantastic job with a great client, the perfect combination that a project of this scale and complexity demands. It's been fantastic to work in the local area, with James having previously renovated his own family home on the same street in Fairy Meadow.
