This three-bedroom home epitomises intelligent planning and strong architectural detailing. It’s a blueprint for how to deliver a relatively compact home that’s also something special. The 154sqm footprint is full of carefully crafted features; light, airy rooms and shared spaces that smoothly transition from inside to out. The good vibes start from the footpath. The house is dapper in shiplap and brick veneer cladding with metal-tile roofing. A strong gable above a welcoming entrance is teamed with a shallower roofline over the double garage with timber door.

The interior lives up to its street billing. Open the door and you’re greeted by a hall that transitions into a long, lovely communal zone — a light-filled white kitchen with island, dining and living area with two sets of sliders. These open to concrete pavers and landscaping on one side, and timber decking with a barbecue and outdoor furniture on another. The main bedroom, with ensuite and walk-in-robe, also accesses this lovely space. On the other side of the house are two more bedrooms, a bathroom and a powder room. You’ll find the laundry in the garage. A light palette with timber highlights, tiles in natural hues and widespread glazing combine to make the home feel much larger than its footprint. There’s so much to like about a property that puts style and sophistication over square metres.
