Living Room and Alfresco Extension

This Encounter Bay home extension, on the Fleurieu Peninsula, added a spacious new living area and a modern alfresco zone, transforming the rear of the property into a light-filled and functional coastal retreat. Wilson Built SA is delighted in how we have captured the client’s vision and delivered this unique space.

The new living room extension features a raked ceiling with exposed rafters, generous sliding doors, and high-level highlight windows that invite natural light and ocean breezes. This space was designed for comfort and connection, providing a perfect environment for entertaining or relaxing with family. Every detail shows Wilson Built SA’s hallmark quality craftsmanship and thoughtful design.

The adjoining alfresco area expands the home’s entertaining potential, offering seamless indoor-outdoor flow that makes the most of the South Coast SA climate. A timber awning shades the sliding doors, while the expressed joint eaves and alfresco ceiling enhance the architectural style. The area was completed with new paving, retaining walls and fencing, along with landscaping to improve both the aesthetic appeal and functionality of the yard.

Externally, the home received a full rear façade upgrade, including rendered brickwork to create a cohesive, contemporary look. These updates not only modernised the property but also increased its value.

This Rumbelow Street living room and alfresco extension is a perfect example of how our residential construction company transforms homes through clever design, expert project management, local tradespeople and premium products. Wilson Built SA continues to create unique living spaces across the Fleurieu Peninsula and South Coast.
