🏭 The Foundry — From Factory to Forever Home

The most iconic property in Melino just got another facelift!

Once an industrial factory. Then Maggie Vaughan's beloved loft apartment. And now… a proper family home.

Yes, Maggie has done it again.

❤️ A Love Story With a Renovation Budget

In this universe, Maggie Vaughan got married!

Her lucky partner is Zane Jackson, manager of the Premium Gym conveniently located right next door — itself another former factory that has been transformed into a mega gym.

Factory neighbours. First-sight love. A gym manager and a book-loving loft dweller.

What started as a next-door romance quickly became a commitment, with Zane moving into Maggie's iconic loft.

But now that the couple is thinking about having a child and building a proper family home, Maggie's once-perfect loft apartment simply isn't enough anymore.

So what does any sensible couple do? Buy the entire building!!

With Zane's support, Maggie purchased the previously vacant ground floor and the long-neglected attic unit, making the entire building theirs.

And thus, The Foundry was born.

🏗️ Keeping the Icon, Changing Everything Else

The couple wanted something new without erasing the building's history.

The iconic industrial façade remains, including those huge signature factory windows that make The Foundry one of Melino's most recognisable properties.

But the old, dilapidated access and awkward stairways had to go.

Instead, the circulation was completely reworked into a long L-shaped extension, running towards the rear of the original footprint.

And what was created in the middle? A garden courtyard. Or a backyard. Or an outdoor living room. Whatever you want to call it, it's now the private green heart of The Foundry.

🌿 Ground Floor — Family Life, With a Side of Gym Life

The ground floor is now designed entirely around everyday family living:

🛏️ Two bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom 🏋️ Private home gym for Zane's very active lifestyle 💻 Home office 📚 Library 🌿 Direct access to the new private garden 🚪 A back door connecting directly to Premium Gym

Yes. Zane literally has a private shortcut to his workplace. He couldn't have planned it better!!

The enormous windows still flood the ground floor with light, while the new courtyard gives the family a private outdoor space that the original industrial building never had.

📚 First Floor — The Loft Lives On

Upstairs, Maggie's old loft spirit is still very much alive.

The double-height ceiling has been retained, creating that dramatic industrial-loft feeling that made the original apartment so iconic.

The first floor now houses

🛋️ Spacious living room 🍽️ Dining area 🍳 Large kitchen 🧺 Laundry room 📚 And, of course, the towering Maggie Vaughan bookcase

Because let's be honest, It wouldn't be Maggie's house without a ridiculously tall bookcase.

And because this is now a shared home, the bookcase has found itself sitting proudly beside…

Zane's yoga mat :)

The enormous industrial balcony has also been preserved, giving the couple their own elevated outdoor space overlooking the neighbourhood.
