The first impression of this family home is one of texture and tone. Charred timber cladding sits confidently alongside kiln-fired Italian bricks, creating a tactile façade that turns the eye. The carefully selected materials and double-gabled design of the 286sqm house speak to durability and craftsmanship, blending modern design with traditional methods. Light and space take centre stage inside where those gorgeous Italian bricks feature again, framing the fireplace in style. Full-height windows and raked ceilings draw daylight deep into the open-plan kitchen, dining and living areas. Earthy hues and rich textures bring warmth, while premium fittings and finishes elevate the home’s contemporary aesthetic.

A separate media room and office add versatility, providing all important spaces to retreat to. The layout is one of practicality. Three bedrooms — two ensuite — and a spacious family bathroom with separate powder room, cater comfortably to household and guests. A scullery, laundry and abundant storage ensure everyday functionality. The outdoor area is designed for year-round enjoyment, featuring a pool and a louvred pergola that offers flexible shelter from the elements. This space encourages relaxation and entertaining alike. Carefully crafted, this home is a sanctuary that balances robust design with thoughtful living.
