Laura Byrne and Matty 'J' Johnson reveal their very retro kitchen renovation in their new $2.2million beach house


Laura Byrne and Matty 'J' Johnson have shown off their latest renovations on their $2.2 million beach house.

'We've been met with termites, white ants, wood rot, mould and more than a couple of snakes along the way - but finally she is taking shape and we are slowly seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.' Dubbing the house the Chante-Mer - which means 'Sing the Sea' in French - Laura also told how construction had to stop for a week so exterminators could rid the site of pests. The home is set on 746 sqm overlooking Racecourse Beach and previously belonged to United Nations simultaneous conference translator Valerie Barnes, who died in 2021 aged 94.
