If balance is a measure of success, then this home is a leading light. The 218sqm residence is a carefully composed blend of form, function and materials. From the moment you set eyes on the exterior, this fine-tuning is clear. Gabled pavilions in restrained claddings of brick teamed with cedar shiplap and board-andbatten ensure street presence. Consistent detailing between materials signals a disciplined approach and high-level of craftsmanship from the builders. The pavilions define the interior layout. The sunny kitchen, dining and main living areas flow from one to the other and then out through sliders to a long stretch of north-facing decking and a patio with pergola.

There’s more interior communal space, too. A separate lounge/media room is ideal for cosy movie nights or a quiet space to read. You’ll find three bedrooms, among them a spacious main suite with tiled ensuite and walk-in robe, in a private corner of the layout. Opposite are the other bedrooms, a tiled family bathroom and a powder room. A separate laundry and double garage is seamlessly incorporated into the design. The interior palette is light and natural with timber highlights such as the trim on the kitchen island and a screen that separates the entrance from the living space. A muted pink floating vanity in the bathroom is another tasteful touch in a house that’s a showcase of subtlety, skills and perfect proportions.
