Separate wings provide space and privacy for the master suite, a guest wing and children’s bedrooms – all located in distinct and separate pods.Communal areas of the home promote inclusiveness and easy interaction with a spacious open plan design.The well-appointed kitchen has access to both the scullery and bar room, with dual access from the bar to the outdoor kitchen/BBQ area. Perfect for entertaining and accessed through large glass sliding doors, the outdoor living space is an extension of the home’s internal main living area.Sustainability was a key consideration, with the soaring glazed wall on the north-eastern elevation not only designed for the views but also to invite the sun in to warm the interior during winter months.The TIDA judges felt this sprawling family home was the perfect response to the owners' request for a tranquil place where family and friends could be entertained with style and ease.
