HOUSE LIFT & BUILD
WHITEHAVEN – From a Cottage to a Dream Family Home
Whitehaven began as a small, two-bedroom cottage full of character but no longer suited to the needs of a growing family. What followed was a heartfelt transformation into a spacious, modern Queenslander that beautifully blends comfort, function, and charm. The original home was lifted and built in underneath, creating two generous levels connected by internal stairs. The result is a thoughtfully designed family home that embraces natural light, cross-breezes, and an open-plan layout, perfect for North Queensland living.
Now featuring five bedrooms, two bathrooms, a powder room, a theatre room, a vibrant kids’ retreat, a practical laundry, and a spacious kitchen at its heart, Whitehaven is a home where every space has purpose. The kitchen serves as a central gathering point, flowing seamlessly into the living and entertaining areas. Outdoors, the transformation continues with a beautiful new pool, a large undercover parking area, and a generous back patio ideal for entertaining or relaxing. The big backyard offers space for kids to run, play, and kick the footy, bringing both freedom and connection to daily life.
It’s a home so transformed, it’s hard to recognise what once stood before. Whitehaven isn’t just a renovation; it’s a complete reinvention. A family home, created with care, designed for the tropics, and built to grow with the people who live in it.
