You would be forgiven for thinking the budget for this Narrabundah home was much higher than the actual cost. Thoughtful planning, careful consideration and a great deal of care and attention allowed Third Generation Building to deliver a superb quality home within a strictly capped budget. The wide hallway, large entry door and taller ceilings contribute to the free flowing, spacious feel. Large stacking doors, a picture window and skylights allow beautiful views to the landscaped garden while flooding the home with natural light. The bespoke layout includes a spacious workshop and a multipurpose room with custom joinery, allowing the owners to pursue their hobbies in dedicated comfort. Custom joinery includes cupboards, tailor made vanities, stone benches and polished concrete, adding to the overall style.

Creative Contractors’ challenging objective was to create two double storey homes, side by side but each reflecting its own individuality and each with its own façade and layout. While both homes reflect the quality of materials used and workmanship invested, one won this category as a result of its seamless flow and excellent inclusions. This stunning home has three separate sitting areas, a six car garage and basement area. The landscaping incorporates established oaks, eucalypts and a large elm, which required lateral thinking, but has resulted in an exceptional outdoor space, including swimming pool. Double glazing assists the energy efficiency and combines with the stylish finishes to produce a peerless and award winning home.

Inspired by the simplicity and functionality of Scandi design, this captivating family home is as elegant as it is exceptional. A unique mix of techniques, quality materials and craftsmanship are central to the eclectic architectural design. The clients’ Scandinavian heritage was the impetus for the aesthetics, leading to an outwardly modest barn like building with a distinctive edge. Bronze anodised cladding and a bespoke garage door add to the understated elegance of the exterior. The interior seamlessly transitions from material to material with intricate attention to detail. Floor to ceiling glazing, timber lined walls and ceilings, material junctions and different heating solutions required planning and forethought. The result is a masterpiece of sophistication.

This is an exceptional home. The quality of workmanship is testimony to the excellent trades and creative team. The split-level residence has four bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, three living areas and two studies. Custom joinery, well-planned outdoor spaces and the sparkling in-ground pool combine to reflect the owner’s vision – a character-filled residence with form and function in equal measure. The innovative split positions the entry at street level, while the first floor living and bedroom wing enjoy easy access to the beautifully styled outdoors, protected by the stunning architectural roof. The Northern vergola and Southern skylights ensure light-filled and comfortable living inside and out. The family room, meals area and impressive designer kitchen with its large butler’s pantry exude luxury. An inspired design, beautifully executed.
