HERITAGE FAQs // Each heritage era has a series of notable features, and we're here to break them down for you so you can identify the era of your own home: ⠀ ⠀ 🌟Victorian (1840-1901). Typically made from brick with a front verandah, pitched roof and minimal fretwork. Homes built toward to end of this era may feature terraces, cast-iron lacework, fireplaces, moulded timberwork, decorative plaster ceilings, steep and narrow stairs or small windows. ⠀ ⠀ It's worth noting that Georgian, Gothic, Regency, Tudor and Italianate style homes are all encompassed in this era.⠀ ⠀ 🌟 Edwardian (1901-1910). Distinguished by their red brick exterior, stained glass, bay windows, return verandahs, tessellated tiles, pressed-metal ceilings, long central corridor, and terracotta tiles.⠀ ⠀ 🌟 Art Deco (1920-1930). Defined by curved façades, decorative brickwork, geometric elements, chevron patterns, metal-framed windows, parquetry floors, timber-veneer wall panelling and built-in joinery. ⠀ ⠀ There are of course many other eras of homes, but these are the most common architectural styles in Melbourne. Stay tuned for more heritage FAQs coming soon. #SECONConstructions #RemarkableHomes⠀⠀⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #heritagehomes #heritagerestoration #restoration #homerestoration #customhomes #customhomebuilder #builderblog #builderadvice #buildertips #baysidehomes #FAQ #heritageFAQ

Cheltenham Project Update⠀. Welcome back to our Cheltenham project, where the SECON team are using their expert knowledge and experience to add a contemporary extension to this heritage-listed home. ⠀ ⠀ In our extension, we've added various unique features that contribute to this homes' charming character, including a curved fireplace, floor to ceiling sliding doors, a large skylight and a pivot window that looks onto the home's stunning landscaping. ⠀ ⠀ These features assist in the transition from old to new, while maintaining the feeling of the 1900's era. ⠀ ⠀ Next time you see this home, it'll be fully fitted with cabinets and tiling. We look forward to seeing you then! #SECONConstructions #RemarkableHomes⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #cheltenhamhomes #renovationproject #baysidebuilder #baysidehomes #baysidemelbourne #melbournebuilder #masterbuilders #melbournehomes #videoupdate #constructionupdate #inprogress #projectupdate #heritage #heritagehome

HERITAGE FAQs // Heritage homes are historic buildings valued for their architectural style and features or connection to historic events. They help celebrate a community's past, contribute to a strong local identity, and provide historic character. ⠀ ⠀ Your home does not necessarily need to be of a certain age to be considered 'heritage'. There are homes that are 100 years old that do not satisfy the criteria - it all depends on your home's importance to the community or whether it demonstrates an innovative design of its era. ⠀ ⠀ Follow us for more heritage home FAQs coming soon! #SECONConstructions #RemarkableHomes⠀⠀⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #heritagehomes #heritagerestoration #restoration #homerestoration #customhomes #customhomebuilder #builderblog #builderadvice #buildertips #baysidehomes #heritage #FAQ's

NEW BLOG // As the days get shorter, sky gets darker and temperature gets cooler, a cosy night at home has never been so appealing - which is why it’s so important to make sure your heritage home is ready for winter. ⠀ ⠀ What older buildings offer in charm, they can sometimes lack in adequate insulation and modern appliances, meaning the inside of your home may feel cooler that the outside. ⠀ ⠀ Read our most recent blog to find out how add warmth to your heritage home [via link in bio] #SECONConstructions #RemarkableHomes⠀⠀⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #heritagehomes #heritagerestoration #restoration #homerestoration #customhomes #customhomebuilder #builderblog #builderadvice #buildertips #baysidehomes #heritagehome #heating #winter #winterhome
