Belmont is an early twentieth century country home built between 1901-1903 for the well known Ballantyne and Count Von Horn Families. It is located in Buln Buln, Gippsland, Victoria.
We were engaged to undertake extensive restoration of the original house, which was dilapated. Restoration was substantial, with sympathetic upgrades to the living conditions to respect heritage whilst adapting to 21st century living.
It was exciting to see how all the parts of this project came together. In order to maintain the historic homestead’s authenticity as well as prioritising sustainability, we salvaged building materials for reuse and repurposed these in the works.
