Whilst the home is structurally complete, the master suite, kitchen and living area require various decorative details to be finished. This presents you with the rather unique opportunity to embrace the remaining project and benefit from having a brand-new quality home without the hassle of building from the ground up. Not only are you able to complete it to your personal taste, but you can enjoy living there while you do so as the spaces are suitably finished to do so.
Architecturally designed by local award-winning designers at Front Door Building Design, this spectacular home has been quality built with a combination of fibre cement and spotted gum timber cladding. Offering large open spaces and sought-after separation, both the living/entertaining wing and bedroom wing enjoy north orientation to deliver a solar passive design with light-filled spaces.
The grand foyer entrance with one of the largest front doors you will ever see, makes an unforgettable statement as it welcomes you inside. A large window frames the courtyard which was intended to be complete with deciduous trees for an ever-changing landscape.
The entertaining and living wing extends from the left-hand side of the home. Typified by wide open spaces, high raked ceilings and polished concrete floors, the lounge is tucked at the front of the home. Based on the concept of versatility, it flows through to the dining and kitchen hub for both effortless and connected contemporary living, whilst being able to double as a home theatre via the use of a projector. The thermo-efficient design is complete with the inclusion of ducts for reverse cycle air conditioning if you wish and a slow combustion fire place for that unbeatable warmth in the cooler months.
The dining flows through to the temporary kitchen which is complete with a large island, breakfast bar, 900mm dishwasher draw, 5-burner induction cooktop and wall-mounted oven. Designed for the Australian indoor/outdoor way of life, it opens to the central courtyard via an amazing wall of double glazed sliding glass panels and bi-fold doors to the planned alfresco at the end. Adjoining the kitchen is a laundry/utility room with a powder room and door to the planned drying yard.
The bedroom wing extends along the right-hand side of the home. The two junior bedrooms are set at the front, both with timber floors and stylish pendant lights they are finished with on-trend modern dcor. The second bedroom additionally boasts a walk-through robe to the main bathroom making it the dream room for teenagers or guests.
The bathroom has been exceptionally finished with timber-look floor tiles and fashionable floor to ceiling wall tiles. There is a beautiful up-cycled timber vanity, huge open shower and raised free standing bath, plus a separate powder room finished to the same calibre.
Continuing down the light-filled hallway, there is a feature built-in display cavity and an open office/activity space. Superbly versatile as it currently stands, it could be enclosed to form a fourth bedroom if desired.
At the end of the bedroom wing is the decadent size master suite. Overlooking the native bushland surrounding you, double doors open to the central courtyard so you can embrace nature and enjoy the fresh country air. Designed with a large walk-in robe that leads through to the ensuite, it was intended to be luxuriously finished with a central double vanity, double shower and make-up station.
An entertainers dream, the central courtyard forms a fantastic feature that can be enjoyed throughout the entire home. With unlimited lifestyle potential, you could maintain the current concept of using deciduous trees or pursue the blank canvas approach to landscape it as you please.
To the front of the property, is a monstrous over-height powered shed, workshop and studio. A fantastic space separate from the main home, the studio would be a great games room, teen retreat, space for visitors or even an office to work from home. It is complete with high ceilings, a reverse cycle air-conditioner and slow combustion fireplace for comfort all year round, plus a small kitchenette with a freestanding oven and combined laundry/bathroom with a separate toilet.
This jaw-dropping but incomplete home is architecturally designed to offer comfortable contemporary living spaces worthy of featuring on Kevin McClouds Grand Designs. Embrace the surrounding native atmosphere and enjoy the great lifestyle on offer as you entertain friends and family in style just add good food and even better wine!
