This outstanding family home features expansive open plan spaces, 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, home office, spacious kitchen, and a lovely outdoor area with easy care gardens. Designed to maximize space, light and privacy, the versatile layout offers flexible functionality, striking the perfect balance between relaxed living and easy entertaining as well as working from home options.
An eclectic palette of natural materials and textures throughout the home emphasizes openness, flow and organic architectural form with limestone and exposed brick walls, warm jarrah floors, towering timber ceilings and vast expanses of floor to ceiling jarrah framed glass. Solar oriented to capture the warmth of winter sun and cooling summer breezes, louvres are strategically positioned in every room.
The ground floor hosts a generous home office at the front, and TV/sitting room with French doors opening to a large, very private entertaining courtyard. At the rear, walls of glass and towering cathedral timber ceilings frame vast open plan spaces, encompassing the large modern kitchen, dining to seat 10 or more, and an enchanting country style living area with large wood burning fireplace and picture windows overlooking the courtyard.
Outside, a huge paved, sun protected leafy courtyard is the perfect spot to entertain family and friends, dine alfresco or enjoy morning coffee.
The upper floor encircles a central lightwell tower with louvred clerestory windows on each side, allowing heat to escape and natural light and cooling air in. Bedrooms are bright and sunny with raked, whitewashed timber ceilings. The gorgeous main bedroom features super high ceilings, a walk in robe and en-suite. There are three further sunny bedrooms and a neat family bathroom.
