Located in Kangaroo Point within Sydney’s Sutherland Shire, this custom knockdown rebuild was designed to completely transform the way this family lives day to day.

Built through our Crafted by King custom home service, the project replaced an outdated home with a contemporary residence carefully tailored to the block, lifestyle, and long-term needs of the clients. From the beginning, the vision focused on creating stronger connection — between indoor and outdoor living, entertaining spaces, and everyday family life.

The home was thoughtfully designed around a custom in-house concrete pool, positioned as a central feature rather than an afterthought. Open-plan kitchen, dining, and living areas wrap around the outdoor entertaining space, creating seamless flow and strong visual connection throughout the home.

Working within a constrained site and tight planning setbacks required careful spatial planning and collaboration. The layout balances expansive communal spaces with quieter private zones, including a separate living room, study near the entry, and a private upper-level main suite complete with balcony, ensuite, and walk-in robe.

Material selections and construction methods were chosen to improve both performance and longevity, including Hebel external wall systems, XCEM AlphaFloor between levels, and double-glazed windows throughout most of the home. Together, these decisions contribute to improved comfort, acoustic performance, and energy efficiency.

The result is a highly considered knockdown rebuild that feels calm, connected, and tailored entirely around modern family living — showcasing how thoughtful design can completely reshape the experience of home.
