Thynne House - Norman Park
This traditional Queenslander home blends its classic heritage with modern updates, creating a residence full of charm and functionality. The exterior, characterised by its weatherboard cladding and intricate timberwork, showcases a classic style. Elevated from the street, the home features a gabled roof and shuttered windows that enhance privacy while still allowing light to flood the interiors.
The kitchen is a standout space, designed with both aesthetics and practicality in mind. It features shaker-style cabinetry in a soft grey, contrasted by a white subway tile splashback. The central island, with seating for three, is perfect for casual meals and doubles as a functional workspace. Overhead, pendant lights provide a warm glow, adding to the inviting atmosphere of the space.
The living area is equally captivating, with white VJ walls and a fireplace that anchors the room, creating a cosy space for relaxation. Built-in shelving on either side of the fireplace provides practical storage and display areas, maintaining the room’s neat and organised aesthetic.
Throughout the home, polished timber floors add warmth and continuity to the spaces, while traditional details like ornate archways and stained glass windows preserve its historical charm. Every corner of this home is a testament to the integration of traditional design with modern comforts, making it a delightful home that honours its Queenslander roots.
