Summary: Built With Volume, Vision And Designer Detail

The dining zone opens to the rear through another set of bifold doors, leading to a private backyard with patio, decking and a water tank, perfect for relaxed entertaining without the garden upkeep. The kitchen is a standout. A Marrakech-rendered island sits at the centre, paired with a combination of a customised Italian stainless steel countertop/sink and stone benchtop. Milan appliances, a dishwasher and a pantry finished with timber doors complete a space that feels handcrafted rather than generic. The ground floor also includes a bedroom with built-in robes opposite a bathroom, along with a European laundry, under-stair storage and a split system. Upstairs, hardwood floorboards continue through the staircase to a retreat area with glass balustrading overlooking the chandelier and living space below.
