Serious style for under 10K with Highgrove Bathrooms.

Adam’s Reno Notes...

Part One - Serious style for under 10K with Highgrove Bathrooms.

We may be limited to our homeland of Australia for the foreseeable future, but is that really something to dwell over? These travel limitations can only mean limitless opportunity for creation, so why not put your extra time and holiday savings into something truly timeless. Will this New Year bring a bathroom renovation instead? Below is the perfect guide for renovating for maximum style and minimal spend.

After leaving Sydney a few years ago, Adam purchased a property on Shaws Bay in Ballina. He has been slowly transforming the 1954 built home from a tired 50’s ‘Groovy’ to a sleek 20’s spectacle. He has started with the bathroom.

The Shower

Despite the space being relatively small, the subtle changes made use of the space, boosting functionality, giving a modern edge. Your gaze goes straight to the OMEGA Nero Integrated Shower System , MONSOON Shower Head and EDEN Nero Hand Shower all in Matte Black, providing a contemporary feel that is only an extension of its luxurious qualities. With an inbuilt AQUAMist function, it saturates the body with micro sized droplets for the smoothest immersion. The Frameless Shower maximised the smaller space and the white tile finish made the perfect contrast to the matte black features.

Highgrove Cost-Saver Tip!

Choose one or two showcase pieces for a cost-effective solution that doesn’t compromise on style.

The Vanity

The highlight of the renovation would have to be the vanity area. The COMO Timber Floor Mount Vanity makes for the perfect addition to any renovation looking to achieve anything from coastal ambiance to contemporary excellence.

The COMO vanity is ideal for anyone looking for additional storage, with two deep drawers, it offers maximum storage potential. Adam opted to pair the vanity with the CIELO Rectangle Bench Mount Basin Matte Black as it provides a feel of indulgence without compromising on functionality. The design is the perfect match to the shower, tying the space together while still holding its spacious feel.

Highgrove Cost-Saver Tip!

If possible, keep your original plumbing points to avoid extra hassle and costs. Try to keep toilets, sinks or baths in the same location, if they are not affecting the overall design ,flow or functionality of your new bathrooms. And ensure your services are all in good working order.

Essential accessories

Towel rails and hooks are one major essential that can double as a chic bathroom addition. Featured below is Highgrove’s EDEN Matte Black Accessories including the Double Towel Rail, Robe Hooks, Toilet Roll Holder, Hand Towel Holder, Soap Rack and Toilet Brush Holder. Having both towel rails and hooks are super handy, particularly in a family home as it keeps the towels up and off the floor and when chosen correctly, can make a great design addition.

Highgrove Cost-Saver Tip

Choose chic and timeless accessories to amplify your space and provide a luxurious feel to get maximum results for less.

Rod Baldock, owner of Highgrove Bathrooms Coffs Harbour said that you don’t need to compromise the style you’re looking for when opting for cost-effective alternatives.

“By choosing pieces that are timeless in style and a focal point in your bathroom, you can achieve more without having to overcompensate with multiple products.

This will not only overcrowd your space but will ultimately cost you more.

Similarly, opting for products that offer durability and longevity will have you saving you time and money in years to come.”
