A family-friendly gem carved out of a property no one was brave enough to touch

 

A Melbourne couple turned a rundown 1950s bungalow into a light and bright oasis.

Choosing a fireplace over an engagement ring takes a highly dedicated renovator, and that’s exactly what Erin did in a quest to create the perfect family home with her partner, Julian. Yet it was her ability to spot another kind of gem that led them to this home, which nobody else was brave enough to tackle.

 

Once the home was theirs, the couple moved into a tiny one-room bungalow that was already in the backyard and began tackling the mess.

 

“Every wall and floor seemed different, the doors were glued shut and made into shelving spaces, there was a chest freezer in the entry, and a murky pond in the backyard," Erin says. “But it’s my passion to take on projects like this – I love finding a diamond in the rough.”
