Modern Masterpiece
This stunning ten room family home designed by architect Anne Crampton, considers all aspects of eco design but most importantly, takes full account of the need for a large growing family. With passive heating and cooling, maximising the northern orientation of the 869m² Mar Lodge allotment, the home is flooded with natural light, especially in the winter to take advantage of the enormous double height thermal mass block wall. With a brilliantly designed kitchen, four bedrooms with a huge master bedroom with walk-in robe and ensuite, formal lounge room with eco smart fireplace, meals area with bi-fold doors to link with the large covered alfresco patio, central study with floating desk and filing cabinets and a family room with a feeling of vast space, including double height ceilings and enormous glass wall overlooking the heated in-ground pool and professionally designed huge rear garden. The home has been designed with low maintenance materials, including brick, alucobond and commercial profile aluminium windows, and orange cedar to provide a balance to the colour pallet of the exterior. Maximum use of storage throughout the home plus solar hot water, enormous rain water collection tank and auto drip system around the gardens. The home is a very modern residence with a timeless appeal. The minimalistic feel and clean lines will impress you immediately. Inspection by appointment only by contacting Brad Teal or Aaron Leask.
