This gorgeous Remuera villa is an absolute standout in the street. Built-in 1920 with 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and a stunning indoor/outdoor flow from the newly renovated kitchen and lounge area showcases Russell’s talent for breathing new life into historical treasures.

living spaces.
We returned all the walls to the structure, re-wired, re-roofed, and re-plumbed the entire house, and added rooms, including a stunning wine cellar. We also built a new deck to enhance the indoor /outdoor flow to the entertainment area and added skylights to give natural light in previously darker spaces.
As the original hallways were quite narrow, we widened them to give more space and height to the house without making it draughty or cold. We made sure to apply strict resource conditions to maintain the original building's look, feel and structure.
With meticulous attention to detail and an unwavering commitment to quality, the team seamlessly blended the villa's original features with modern amenities, creating a harmonious balance between old-world charm and contemporary luxury.

Russ, Jen and the entire crew were an absolute pleasure to work with! They came into a flood damaged home, with half walls missing and have worked alongside us to create a modern and upgraded home to our dreams! As our first time renovating they really have made it easy for us to renovate in the future and we even picked up some new skills along the way from the team! Big shout out to Tony, Jordy, Ben and Finn for the hard work to the house and even being super respectful while I was doing overnights! Can't thank them enough and so happy to have our home back after over a year!

“The team at Licensed Renovations were great to deal with. Their brief was to manage the renovation of our existing bathroom and addition of a new en suite. We are delighted with the end result, they managed the entire process and communicated well throughout the build. Will definitely use them again.”

“I just wanted to say before the house is completed how happy I am with the workmanship and quality of the renovation! My wife and I are really impressed and glad we chose you guys. I had a good look around yesterday and please tell all your tradies they have done a first class job. The plumbing, electrical work and painting are first class. And your advice on colours and floorings was spot on. Lastly my wife and I are going to sell the house and we’re looking forward to getting a good price. Please thank the team for a great job.”
