This Old House Studio

‘This Old House’ is the Shoalhavens newest furniture and homewares store…with a difference. Featuring authentic vintage, Australian country and industrial pieces lovingly restored, with a focus on eco-friendly and Australasian produced furniture treatments and homewares. Without a doubt, our biggest thrill comes from uncovering a forgotten piece or taking an ugly duckling and bringing it to the ‘This Old House’ in-store workshop to be upcycled, revamped and re-loved.
We use Botanics Furniture Paint by L’Essentiel Australia along with L’Essentiels gorgeous range of waxes, oils and other furniture treatments to transform our pieces along with uniquely sourced hardware, soft furnishings and accessories to give that special finishing touch. From coffee tables, dining suites, outdoor settings, wardrobes and dressers to revamped crates, chairs, lamps and garden accessories, we have something for every part of your home, office, photo-shoot or even wedding. We love finding potential beauty in discarded furniture and home wares and restoring or re-purposing them with fresh life.
This Old House conducts regular workshops to teach and inspire you to create a custom piece of furniture for your home. We use and recommend L’Essentiel products and run workshops from the very basics of painted furniture to more advanced styles, techniques and products. This Old House also offers a custom painting service that will transform and revitalise your furniture, using L’Essentiel products.
This Old House also stocks a unique range of furniture knobs and cabinet hardware from our suppliers in the United Kingdom and in Australia, as well as a range of French country and vintage inspired homewares, candles and decorator items.
