A considered collaboration between Eldridge Anderson Architects, Murphy James Builders and Simon Taylor Landscape Design, this architecturally resolved residence delivers a refined interplay of form, materiality and landscape across approximately 1,642sqm of landscaped grounds.
Privately positioned within a natural bush setting, the home is designed in direct response to its environment, following the gentle fall of the land and embracing its surrounding canopy. A wraparound form centred on a landscaped courtyard establishes the home’s core, inviting natural light deep within while maintaining a constant visual connection across living zones. Expansive glazing and carefully framed outlooks create a seamless relationship between indoors and out, with established trees enhancing both privacy and outlook.
Material selection is both robust and enduring, with a restrained palette of masonry, polished concrete flooring, Artedomus tiling and custom blackbutt joinery bringing warmth and texture throughout. Double glazed blackbutt windows enhance thermal performance, while Astral Walker fixtures provide a refined finishing touch.
The main living domain is expansive yet grounded, anchored by a feature open fireplace and bespoke joinery. The adjoining kitchen is equally considered, appointed with honed marble benchtops and splashbacks, integrated refrigeration and dishwasher, and Fisher & Paykel induction cooking—balancing functionality with a clean architectural aesthetic.
Comfort is assured with in-floor heating and cooling, complimented by additional ducted cooling to the bedrooms and living zones, while passive solar principles further enhance year-round efficiency.
Outdoors, a custom-formed circular concrete swimming pool sits within meticulously landscaped gardens, accompanied by architecturally designed fencing and a series of defined zones for entertaining or private enjoyment.
Further enhancing the offering, a detached brick veneer studio or shed provides exceptional versatility, complete with a mezzanine, heating, kitchenette and toilet. A blackbutt tilt garage door and cohesive architectural detailing complete a residence of enduring quality, while the expansive grounds and substantial shed infrastructure offer flexibility for additional vehicle accommodation, including caravans, trailers or recreational equipment, enhancing both practicality and lifestyle appeal.
