X-Bond Microcement
Sorrento, Mornington Peninsula
In this renovation of an original 19th century limestone cottage in Sorrento, the intention was to bring Mediterranean vibes to the Mornington Peninsula — think exotic hotel villas in the Greek islands and Italian countryside.
Alternative Construction specified X-Bond almost everywhere. Creating seamless continuity from inside to out, our microcement is on display everywhere you turn. From floor to ceiling, walls to joinery, inside the showers and submerged in the pool.
Stages 1 and 2 of construction are complete, including a total backyard renovation with an X-Bond pool, outdoor kitchen and entertaining area. Surrounded by arches and decked with hanging planters, this space is inspired by European courtyards.
Inside the new rear extension and renovated main dwelling, X-Bond is featured in all the updated bathrooms, living, kitchen, and dining areas on walls, ceilings, floors and joinery.
