Classic style
Building towards the sun ensures this house, designed and constructed by Englehart Homes, is both light-filled and carries a 5-star energy rating
Every building site has its strong points and challenges. A good home designer will make the most of the advantages and quickly resolve any problems.
This home, by design and build company Englehart Homes, was built on a typical infill site in an inner suburb. To take advantage of the light and sun, living areas are located on the north side of the house and integrate smoothly with outdoor entertaining areas, the swimming pool and alfresco dining area.
In addition, the careful layout, which maximises solar exposure, has earned the house a 5-star energy rating.
The design includes formal and informal living areas, and five bedrooms. The master bedroom wing has its own private access corridor from the entry and enjoys an outlook to the courtyard and pool. A bedroom at the front of the house doubles as a study or guest bedroom and has access to a powder room with a shower.
Englehart managing director Ron Englehart says colours and finishes were selected to maximise the luxurious feel of the house, beginning at the front entry portico and carrying on to the quality finishes, fixtures and appliances found throughout. Extensive storage is provided in the garage.
