Private Perspective
This new-build offers the perfect balance of privacy and presence. Clad in a contrasting mix of light-toned concrete panelling and dark vertical weatherboard, the home presents a crisp, modern face to the street. A double-gable form anchors the façade, adding depth and interest. But it’s what happens beyond the street view that means the most. Designed to open up to the sun, the layout makes the most of its north- and west-facing orientation. Living spaces are positioned to capture all-day natural light, creating warm, welcoming zones that flow to the outdoors. The 235sqm home includes three bedrooms, two bathrooms, two living areas plus study.
A bright, open-plan kitchen, dining and lounge form the social core, with large windows drawing in garden views and light. Clever planning ensures that the home feels spacious without being excessive — every room is functional, beautiful and connected. Touches of playfulness appear inside too, where bold floral wallpaper adds personality and warmth, contrasting the clean lines and high-quality finishes found throughout. Tucked away from view but open where it matters, this home exemplifies smart, sensitive design. Its layered approach — quiet restraint outside, confident character within — proves the best homes understand both their place and their people.
