First impressions count, and this 231sqm modern farmhouse makes an immediate statement. Anchored by an eight-metre-wide gable and a soaring cathedral ceiling, the home combines architectural drama with the warmth and practicality needed for everyday family life. Designed in an L-shaped configuration, the three-bedroom, two-bathroom home is arranged around generous living spaces that feel both expansive and welcoming. Rather than relying on decoration, the dwelling draws its character from its form and carefully considered detailing.

At its centre is an open-plan kitchen, dining and living area where the dramatic pitched ceiling creates a sense of volume from the moment you step through the door. The kitchen forms the social heart of the home, complete with a dedicated bar area, while a separate lounge offers flexibility for quieter moments. Exposed timber structure plays a starring role throughout the main living zone, bringing warmth, texture and a strong sense of craftsmanship. The vaulted ceiling enhances natural light, while giving the home an unmistakable identity, reinforcing the modern farmhouse aesthetic both inside and out. The main suite provides a private sanctuary, with a walk-through wardrobe and ensuite, while ducted heating ensures year-round comfort throughout. Striking yet approachable, this home shows how bold design can coexist with comfort.
