Taking Shape
At 207sqm plus an 18sqm alfresco space, this four-bedroom, two-bathroom show home demonstrates strong architectural gestures that are welcoming and highly liveable. The home’s dark exterior palette gives it a confident street presence, but the experience becomes more layered on arrival. A boardwalk approach leads into a carefully framed entry sequence where glazing creates immediate visual connection through the house and out to the landscaped spaces beyond. Its H-shaped layout separates social and private zones, while maintaining a strong sense of cohesion. One wing is devoted to gathering, with open-plan living arranged beneath a soaring cathedral ceiling. Tall glazing and large sliding doors keep the space visually open and reinforce the relationship to the outdoors.
The kitchen acts as the anchor of the home. Warm timber cabinetry softens the bold architectural lines, while integrated storage and concealed utility spaces help maintain a calm, uncluttered appearance. Nearby dining and living spaces are subtly defined, creating areas that feel distinct without interrupting flow. The accommodation wing continues the home’s restrained approach, delivering four bedrooms including a main suite with a walk-in wardrobe, ensuite and direct patio access. An additional living room, guest powder room and oversized double garage complete a home designed to balance statement-making architecture with ease of use.
