Encased in striking cedar, this Karaka Lakes home is in tune with the environment. Dark stained horizontal cladding covers the bulk of the building. The double garage and entry is expressed in golden hues – its wide door seamlessly integrated into the whole.

A pleasant departure from the dark facade, the interior palette is light and bright. A spacious 295sqm floor plan serves up four bedrooms, three bathrooms and three living spaces. Ideal for entertaining, the open-plan domain flows from kitchen to dining to outdoors in one fluid movement. A huge deck spans the length of the building, gazing over endless greenery with glimpses of water. Back inside, the sitting area is open to views to the south and a sun-soaked courtyard to the north. Extensive fencing makes for a lovely private spot for entertaining.

Chandeliers add a touch of class throughout this well-appointed home. Three bathrooms include a stunning silver-and-white affair with traditional clawfoot bathtub, freestanding double vanity and ornate wall-hung mirror. A reflection of fine tastes.
