Externally the home's character is accentuated by its welcoming front verandah, from where family members can be greeted or waved goodbye to at the end of the day, creating those postcard image memories that stay with us forever. Indoor-outdoor living will become second nature, aided by the manner in which the homes living spaces naturally flow unimpeded to the rear deck and the covered entertaining/carport zone from where the rest of the property unfolds.

Across the gravel driveway is a garage/workshop that offers a space for parking/storage and enough room left over to work on those projects you have always wanted to throw yourself into. A space that will allow you to "tools down" at the end of the day, comfortable in the knowledge that you can return to that project when time permits and it wont be in the way.
