Kent House / Alexandra Buchanan Architecture
Kent is a contemporary addition to a 1925 Queenslander. Nestled onto Teneriffe Hill, in the riverside peninsula of New Farm, Brisbane, the site slopes steeply to the west, away from the street, to a surprisingly quiet leafy garden, fringed with palms. Located on a small lot, the cottage is in close proximity to neighboring houses (some 400mm on one side and 800mm on the other). The elevation, however, affords excellent cross ventilation from the north, district hill views to the south, and presents a discreet, small-scale (single-storey) cottage façade to the street, which somewhat belies the significant extension to the rear.
