Dramatic angles, double-height ceilings and artful window composition define this contemporary haven, designed by architects Cameron Neil and David Neil. A subtle Japanese influence is introduced by the stone-paved, bamboo-lined entrance, setting a calm, considered tone. Dark timber flooring and polished concrete in the living spaces gesture toward the elemental, while the generous proportions and intuitive layout achieve flow and functionality. The split-level living, kitchen and dining zone at the rear of the home is bathed in natural light with indooroutdoor connections prioritised through thoughtful glazing. The lounge is anchored by a wood-burning stove and has a 'conversation hub' feel. The kitchen features stainless steel surfaces, Bosch appliances and timber joinery. Bedrooms are spacious, finished with plush carpet, built-in robes, a soft neutral palette and verdant outlooks. The master enjoys direct access to the central bathroom, a symphony in stone with Methven Halo shower and heated towel rail. Outside, the private courtyard and alfresco area is screened by citrus trees and enhanced by stepped decking, mature agaves, and a discreet shed and maintenance area. Extras include cooling, hydronic heating, tank and laundry. Schools, Yarra parkland, village cafés and Clifton Hill Station are all within walking distance.
