Style and quality don’t have to cost the earth, as this new build shows. Take a good design, add kitset materials, apply expert craftsmanship and voila! You have an affordable 153sqm home that ticks all the boxes and looks, for all the world, like a much more expensive property. One of the advantages of the kitset was that the design was locked in from the outset, so wholesale changes were out of the question. This and the staged supply of materials enabled the team to stick to their building programme. But the result is so much more than a house constructed on time. A smart Linea weatherboard and vertical shiplap exterior signals that this is a home with class. Step inside and the interior confirms it. You’ll find an elegant white kitchen with wood accents, a stand-alone bath in the spacious bathroom and the main bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite. Sliding doors open directly from the living and dining space onto a spacious deck with a green outlook. As if that’s not enough, there’s a fireplace in the lounge, a tiled splashback in the kitchen and a garage with a laundry.
