Thoughtful design

The Newenham Display Home design masterfully balances site topography, environmental considerations, passive solar principles, and aesthetic appeal. The split-level design creates a natural flow between spaces, integrating seamlessly with the block’s significant slope toward Newenham Parade. The upper level accommodates the garage, main living areas, fourth bedroom, and study, while maximising views of the pristine natural surroundings. This thoughtful layout harnesses the site’s natural contours to create distinct living zones, with the lower level offering private sanctuaries for additional bedrooms and bathrooms.

Seamless Indoor-Outdoor Living

The welcoming front entry deck flows directly into the heart of the home, immediately showcasing our commitment to connecting to nature. The interior spaces reveal expansive views of the northern gardens, complemented by an integrated garden feature within the northern deck. From its elevated position, the residence commands stunning views across Newenham Creek, while thoughtfully designed native landscaping and a fruit tree orchard create a private sanctuary. The generous north-facing deck serves as a natural extension of the living areas, perfectly suited for both entertainment and peaceful relaxation.

Innovative Sustainable Design

The home showcases passive solar technology through strategically positioned brick walls placed just inside the northern glazing, utilizing trombe wall technology. These architectural features act as thermal batteries, capturing and storing winter warmth while maintaining comfortable temperatures throughout the seasons. Carefully planned northern exposure throughout living spaces and bedrooms maximises natural light, while western sun protection through minimal glazing, protective shrouds and screening ensures year-round comfort. 600mm eves were designed in to the northern verandah to make sure that the northern side of the home is protected from the harsh summer sun. When building the home slab insulation was added to help maintain thermal comfort in the exposed aggregated concrete floors in winter.

Thoughtful Space Planning

The master suite features a luxurious ensuite with a freestanding bath overlooking the creek. A separate wing houses two additional bedrooms and a three-way bathroom all at a lower level, creating distinct private zones within the home. The design follows the natural contours of the land, allowing the structure to settle harmoniously into its environment.

Contemporary Aesthetic

The exterior design makes a bold architectural statement with its distinctive popped roofline and low-pitch sail over trusses, creating clean, contemporary lines. Natural timber-look cladding complements the surrounding landscape, while the corner block is thoughtfully addressed from every angle of the home. Interior spaces feature modern curved cabinetry and natural stone elements that flow between the kitchen and living areas, creating a warm, cohesive atmosphere. This residence stands as a testament to sophisticated sustainable design, where every element has been carefully considered to create a harmonious balance between architectural innovation, environmental consciousness, and luxurious living.
