Camperdown Terrace The careful reconfiguration of a traditional, single row terrace house, the design of Camperdown Terrace enables a young working family to continue enjoying all the benefits of inner city living without compromising on amenity, character or outdoor space. Belying its single storey frontage, little is given away from the street, heightening the clients sense of retreat into a calm, sophisticated sanctuary whose highly efficient plan values its outdoor spaces as much as its interiors.

Camperdown Terrace Located in the heart of Camperdown, this renovated terrace home balances heritage sensitivity with modern family living. While the original façade is retained to preserve the rhythm and character of the street, the home opens up behind it - revealing a warm, light-filled interior that blends privacy, flow and connection.

Working within a narrow footprint, the design reconfigures the traditional segmented layout into a series of interconnected living spaces. A central courtyard introduces natural light and ventilation deep into the plan, while large sliding doors connect the living areas to a landscaped rear garden - creating a strong relationship between indoor and outdoor life.

Upstairs and out back, new additions are carefully concealed from street view. The layout is designed to suit a growing family, with four bedrooms, two bathrooms and generous communal zones that encourage both connection and retreat. Original front rooms are preserved for their privacy and character, while the rear of the home adopts a more open, contemporary sensibility.

The material palette is refined and warm - featuring timber accents, pockets of colour and clean monochromatic finishes that bring texture and calm to every space.

Camperdown Terrace is a thoughtful response to its site and history - retaining what matters while creating a home that feels open, connected and distinctly modern.
