New build – About this home

Built in collaboration with the talented designer Studio M1, inspired by elevating a simple design with accented features, without blowing the budget. The use of weatherboard and decking invokes a coastal theme and is a stark contrast to the surrounding houses.

The house has a simple 175m² foot-print based on a central hallway leading to the north facing main kitchen/dining/living layout and into the rear deck and entertaining area.

The garage and pool house are separate, designed to keep the garage away from the main street frontage. The use of both buildings enables some privacy and quietness to the pool and entertaining area in a busy suburb.

 

Internally was an exercise in bringing in more traditional features with wainscoting to the hallway, a curved feature rangehood and moldings to surround the plantation shutters. The house also showcases some of the finest materials and finishes, such as engineered oak flooring, shaker-style cabinetry, stone bench tops, subway tiles, and brass fittings.

The design incorporated a 36m2 second storey/ attic, used as a kids’ games area. Built in a way to enable the second level without the need for costly scaffold.
