The Dandenong Rangers and Yarra Valley hold a rich concentration of 19th and early 20th century properties. We believe that these buildings are so much more than just old properties, they are enduring pieces of our shared local history and identity. By combining traditional carpentry and joinery skills with a deep respect for original materials we ensure that the character, story and soul of our community’s built environment survive for our future generations.
