The Linton House

A refined fusion of interwar charm and contemporary living, The Linton House reimagines a classic Melbourne duplex for modern multigenerational life. Behind its original façade, sculpted additions of charred timber open to lush garden views, with layered spaces designed for comfort, flexibility and calm.

“Blending the simplicity of an interwar duplex with a contemporary addition that respects both history and modern needs, The Linton House merges the quirks of past with a sensitivity to context” – Bronwyn Marshall, Habitus Living

The Linton House blends timeless character with contemporary liveability in one of Melbourne’s most desirable leafy pockets. Positioned on a quiet curved street with views across a green railway reserve, this beautifully reimagined interwar home has been thoughtfully designed for modern multigenerational living.

The original two-storey duplex, with its terracotta roof and classic stucco façade, brings a sense of history and scale. Carefully retained and enhanced, the home now flows seamlessly into a striking rear addition that opens to lush garden views and offers space for a growing family.

Crafted in charred timber and textured stucco, the new extension balances bold form with softness. Sculpted openings frame the established garden, planted with edibles, evergreens and flowering undergrowth, creating a natural connection to the outdoors.

At the centre of the home, a beautifully detailed walnut staircase rises across three levels. At its peak, a quiet retreat opens to treetop views, an everyday moment of calm and escape.
