Scope of works

The vision for this home was to create an ultra-modern, sleek home with the primary focus to incorporate all year-round entertaining spaces and creating a private oasis away from the hustle and bustle of a new residential estate. With functionality of design in mind, the alfresco is a generous extension of the living room that features beautiful castellation cladding as highlights, an open wood fire and natural tiles that further extend to a separate spacious outdoor BBQ/gym area.

Quality of construction

Lekeal’s primary focus with all its custom builds is their commitment to delivering the highest quality products with the detail and execution of this project being second to none. The use of feature castellation cladding and rendered surfaces painted in a calming natural palette create a smooth exterior that is complimented alongside the warm features of Australian native hardwood cypress posts.

The use of natural stacked stone in a number of areas of the home once again accentuate the earthy tones that run throughout the house. A next level of luxury has been achieved internally with the bold use of a Venetian plaster feature wall in the living room, highlighting the openness of this area that then extends through to the dining and kitchen areas. Through the impressive feature of large, plate glass windows and glass sliding doors, this expansive space is lightened by a perfect amount of natural light throughout the day.

Design

This home designed by the Lekeal team, with the modern, sleek interior and private resort-like outdoor areas maximises the use of this block and orientation. Designing this home to include expansive open plan living, the house has a seamless flow to the outdoors with the resort style pool, BBQ area and yoga/recreation studio. The aim of this design to separate spaces that have different individual features but also culminate together to create a private, modern home with the perfect blend of comfortability and sophistication.

Execution of design

The specific design for this home has worked incredibly well and has been able to reach its full potential. The orientation was a key component to the design of this home. The use of large plate glass windows allow for plenty of natural light and cross flow ventilation throughout the house. The unique blend of natural Australian timber and light paint on the exterior of the house alongside the numerous outdoor areas achieves the vision of having all year-round entertaining spaces whilst having the warm feeling of having a private oasis. Overall, we have created a stunning, efficient home that suits all needs.

Value for money

The high level of craftsmanship, design and quality finish has given this beautiful home great value for money. We have combined some high-level features with some specific, yet simple design techniques to allow us to build this home at a great price.

Sustainability/Innovation

One of the primary objectives was to maximise the orientation of the block and the subsequent placing of the house on it. This allows for maximum sun penetration during the colder winter months and minimum sun penetration during the hotter summer months. 10Kw solar panels located on the roof will combat the power costs of the home, including the large swimming pool. All areas of the block have been landscaped will full water dripper systems to minimise the water usage. Heating and cooling has been directed towards the use of gas, hydronic floor heating and an evaporative cooling system.
