When three becomes one. Yes, this house is big. Almost 600sqm big. But when you factor in that three generations comprising seven family members live here, it all makes perfectly proportioned sense. At one end of the sleek black beauty you’ll find the grandparents’ home, ‘the west wing’, with its own entrance, two bedrooms, two ensuites, a double garage, plus everything else they need. The remainder of the property comprises three pavilions for the parents and their three children – two teenagers and a toddler. Here, the teens have their own dedicated space, and everyone has living areas that spill to the outdoors and the pool.
The seven-bedroom property is designed to be flexible – the residents of the two homes can have as many or as few interactions as they want. Interestingly, when it came to colours and textures, the owners were drawn to similar choices and the results are seamless. Despite its grand scale, this high-spec home has been designed to be homely and comfortable. During a walk-through you can’t miss standout design features such as poured in-situ board-form concrete walls that showcase wood grain and knot details. Just one sign of the obvious craftsmanship that’s been poured into every nook of this impeccably planned property.
