Looking for a nice house with a sensible palette, the kind of house where you know exactly what you'll get before you open the door? Then this home is not for you.
If you're after character, ambience, energy and personality, a home that changes the way you live, this one may just capture your heart.
You may think you know this property from the photos online. What you don't know is how it feels.
Consider thisphotos don't reveal her secrets. A wide-angle photo can capture a room's dimensions, but it can't capture the way the mood changes with the light at dawn and dusk, or the feeling of standing before the custom hand-hewn double front doors. Some homes photograph well and live flat. This property does the opposite.
As one Domain design writer put it recently, 'Colour does more than decorate .it shapes mood, movement and memory''After a decade of monochrome dominating residential design, change is overdue'. This home exemplifies what the designer was conveying.
Tucked into a quiet court, 4 Dandy Court radiates a rare, unmistakable energy, a private sanctuary built to inspire and warm the soul, not just shelter you from the weather. Crafted from natural timber, sandstone and reclaimed local materials, including timber from the Geelong Pier and Wool Shed, it's expressive and full of character at every turn. Modern, warm and sophisticated, neither staged nor sterile.

From the current custodians
We love this home. It's been a sanctuary and a gathering place. Countless celebrations, lazy Sunday lunches on the deck, evenings by a roaring fire, and G&Ts on the front veranda listening to the pond. As we begin our next adventure, we're excited for whoever comes next to begin their own chapter here.
