This week’s Thornbury find gets it right and it shows. A home with a relaxed, easy feel that draws you in, with High Street just a short walk away for dinner, drinks or a movie at the Thornbury Picture House, simply a bonus. What’s been done here is well judged. The renovation and extension come together in a way that just works. The entry sets things up with warm timber, before opening into a light-filled living and dining space that draws in the north sun. A wood fire brings warmth through winter, while a wide bifold window with built-in seating quickly becomes the spot you’ll want to gravitate to.
The kitchen is positioned neatly to the side, finished with stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher, generous storage and plenty of bench space, plus a breakfast bar that works just as well for quick mornings as it does for slower starts. From here, doors open to a deck and a private, high-walled garden, making the move outside feel natural. Comfort is handled in a way that feels consistent with the rest of the home, with heating and cooling in place, along with good storage and the added ease of a garage.

A sliding door towards the rear creates a quieter zone. Three bedrooms are set back here, all well sized, two with built-in robes. The central bathroom has been beautifully updated, with a walk-in shower and separate bath, alongside a laundry and second toilet. And it’s just around the corner from Penders Park.
