How do you have a visual point of difference from the houses around yours, without becoming a property prima donna?

That was the predicament for the owners of this Millwater four-bedroom, two-bathroom home. The answer was a long, full-width double sliding window on the second level of the home visible from the street.

Surrounded by cedar weatherboards, it says “wow”, rather than “show-off”, meaning harmonious neighbourly relations are sure to be fostered.

With two living areas, this 278sqm house can grow with the family and any future business requirements can easily be accommodated with its fluid configuration.

Upstairs, the open-plan kitchen/dining/living space running the full width of the house, is ideal for entertaining, as is the brilliant alfresco lounging area, accessed from corner sliders.

The raking ceiling within a monopitch roof design really punctuates the living area and cements the home's wow factor.
