Williton Road, Karrinyup

A Complete Hamptons-Style Transformation

Situated in the desirable suburb of Karrinyup, the Williton Road project is a stunning example of how a dated 1975 home can be completely reimagined into a luxurious, modern-day Hamptons-style retreat. This full-scale renovation was more than just a cosmetic update—it was a comprehensive structural transformation that brought new life, light, and function to a much-loved family home.

The renovation began with an extensive demolition. Most of the original walls and the entire roof were removed to make way for a brand-new second storey and open-plan living design. This bold move allowed the home to take full advantage of its elevated position, unlocking stunning views and dramatically increasing the usable space across both levels.

At the rear of the home, a new concrete foundation was poured to extend the living area outwards, creating a generous alfresco zone that connects seamlessly with the indoor living space. Overlooking a sparkling pool, this outdoor entertainment area is perfect for family gatherings and relaxed afternoons, designed for effortless indoor-outdoor living that suits Perth’s climate and lifestyle.

The second storey was constructed using durable timber framing and finished with a crisp white tin roof, enhancing the home's coastal feel. Weatherboard-style cladding wraps the exterior, adding classic Hamptons character and charm. The newly added upper floor features high ceilings and expansive windows that invite natural light while offering spectacular views.

Inside, the layout was reconfigured to suit modern living. The ground floor now features an expansive open-plan design with high ceilings throughout, creating a bright and airy atmosphere. The kitchen, dining, and living zones flow together harmoniously, forming the heart of the home—a space that’s equally suited to entertaining as it is to everyday family life. Premium finishes, thoughtful lighting, and functional zones ensure both style and practicality.

Upstairs, the second storey not only provides additional bedrooms and private retreats but also takes full advantage of the home’s elevated outlook. With panoramic views of both the Indian Ocean and the picturesque Hamersley Golf Course—both located to the west—the upper floor offers a tranquil, scenic backdrop that enhances the relaxed coastal lifestyle.

The interior design takes inspiration from classic Hamptons styling, with a calming neutral colour palette, soft textures, and refined finishes throughout. Every detail, from the cladding to the ceiling height, was carefully chosen to create a home that feels timeless, elegant, and practical for everyday living.

This renovation is a prime example of what’s possible when thoughtful design meets expert craftsmanship. The 1975-built home has been completely transformed from the ground up into a light-filled, spacious sanctuary tailored to modern coastal family living. Every element—from structure to style—has been reimagined to create a home that prioritizes lifestyle, comfort, and timeless elegance.

For anyone considering a second-storey addition or complete home transformation, Williton Road in Karrinyup is a shining example of what can be achieved through quality renovation and visionary design.
