Gold Award
Based on traditional lines this home offers the solid comfort of family values and understated elegance. The property functions to showcase products and construction techniques required of a show home, but offers easy conversion to family home when required. The public side of the house caters to show home pragmatics of easy access and parking, street appeal, high visibility, and an obvious entry. All this hides the family side where most of the rooms open to north facing courtyards and private gardens. Features of this four bedroom house include exposed cedar rafters and trim to complement the rich colour scheme of the plaster cladding. Pergolas and pebbled courtyards, with timber inlays in the paving and schist mulching offer easy care and natural beauty to the exterior elements. Internally the high ceilings in the living areas offer an added sense of space to this already sizeable home. The entry is a design success with the wow factor, and looks onto a feature wall with creative recesses. Easy flow behind the wall leads to the cosy lounge with gas fire. Adjacent to this area is the open living, dining, kitchen area with effective skylight features. The award-winning kitchen is a masterpiece with granite and stainless steel offering a luxurious appeal. This home is a tribute to great design and quality building practices, materials and fittings.
