Project Description

After winning the competitive tender, Jensen was appointed to refurbish this 100-year-old colonial-era terrace.

Jensen provided a turnkey solution by engaging all relevant consultants and overseeing the project from DA through to OC.

Jensen worked closely with the client to architecturally reconfigure and develop a bespoke design that both optimises in functionality and meets Newtown’s upbeat and artsy culture.

Key Challenges
  • Managing increasing construction costs and reduced labour due to COVID-19.
  • Sourcing alternative materials mid-project due to nationwide material shortages.
  • Compact terrace required out of the box thinking to achieve a maximised floor plan which incorporates an additional bedroom and attic.
The Jensen team demonstrated a proactive & diligent approach to ensure the successful renovation of our property. The Jensen team fulfilled their commitment to providing a high standard of management of the construction process, from the initial DA, to CC through to completion. Their professionalism and constant guidance was critical to ensure the project stayed on track, even through all the various challenges that COVID presented. It was a delight working with Jensen Projects and we look forward to building our relationship into the future.
