We have worked with Amanda for several years, both on our home in the Bayside suburbs and another on the Mornington Peninsula. Amanda was so helpful and provided excellent options that helped us achieve some amazing designs and outcomes. Amanda assisted us from all aspects of our interior design, from first concepts at the planning stage through to colour, texture, furnishings and product selections that have made our new homes look amazing. Our highlight is the kitchen design with the colour and stone specifications that created a wow factor kitchen that we are delighted with. Nothing was too hard and Amanda’s flexibility, communication and timeliness was great! Amanada made our path to achieving the finished product easy and I have no hesitation in using Amanda again in the future or recommending her to anyone seeking a great interior designer.

Surrounded by landscaped grounds and generous views, the Farmhouse has been reimagined as a modern country home: a place of retreat and connection.

The character of the original house has been gently retained. It’s entrance doors and architectural details remain as a quiet nod to the home's history, while new additions bring simplicity, softness and ease. Old and new sit together without effort.

The former verandah now forms a covered internal corridor, a threshold between inside and out that lets the landscape stay part of daily life. Beyond it, the plan has been reworked for contemporary living, with a new kitchen, butler's pantry, laundry, bathrooms, bedrooms and a dedicated home office, all arranged around the charm of the original house.

Designed as both a sanctuary and a place to gather, the home welcomes everyday life as easily as long weekends with extended family and friends. Its spirit is one of nature, hospitality and the lasting qualities of a farmhouse, made to be lived in.
