The homeowner had a clear vision for this build. It would be a family home which would sit proudly next to his current century-old grand bungalow and share the land as if they had both been built there together. The original family home had been his mother’s favourite place in the world and everything with the new home was created to acknowledge her and the generations that have gone before, whilst focussing on modern living. Smart features are integrated throughout, including ducted climate control, sensor-activated ventilation and pre-wiring for future upgrades to lighting, security and audio. Stormwater systems are monitored with CCTV-ready drainage for long-term maintenance ease. Low-VOC paints and durable materials further contribute to a healthier environment.

Tradition meets tomorrow’s needs in a floorplan arranged for easy living. Upstairs, four bedrooms — including a generous main — lead off a second sitting room that acts as a shared space to unwind or study. This leaves the ground floor and porched outdoor areas dedicated to day-to-day living and entertaining. A wide-open kitchen, dining and living area is the central gathering space, while a downstairs bedroom with ensuite offers privacy for guests, extended family or a live-in carer. This 252sqm home is a model of thoughtful design — for now and the generations to come.
