This thoughtfully executed family home makes a compelling case for smart, stylish first-home design. With its H-shaped footprint, the 132sqm layout creates clearly defined spaces, while providing natural shelter to both the entryway and rear patio — enhancing comfort and liveability from the outset. At the front, a striking façade of red brick and black weatherboard cladding balances classic appeal with modern boldness. Drive into the single-car garage and step into a spacious entrance hall, which leads to the living area in one direction, the main bedroom in the other.

The home’s compact footprint is put to excellent use, with two further bedrooms, a bathroom and separate powder room housed in a wing that can be closed off when required. The main suite enjoys privacy with a walk-in robe and ensuite. The open-plan kitchen — with a scullery to absorb any clutter — living and dining area connects seamlessly to the private, sun-soaked patio, establishing an inviting outdoor zone. Natural light floods this central living space, enhancing the warm, practical feel throughout. Carefully considered design and specification ensured this build delivers at a sharp price point. It’s easy to imagine the homeowners feeling right at home from day one — everything is here, and it all works.
