Resting gently in a quiet Parkerville cul-de-sac, this Lynthorne Matthews-designed home uses soaring ceilings and strategically placed glazing to produce a sense of floating in the landscape; a serene melding of formal landscape design and the untamed beauty of an adjoining reserve.

Upon entry to the home, the skilled use of a limited palette of natural materials and textures highlights a flowing floor plan and imbues the interiors with a sense of timeless style. A sunken lounge room with dual aspect glazing opens to a courtyard-like garden and lawn area to create an indoor-outdoor entertaining space. Walls of handmade brick and timber in soft natural tones bring an air of calm to the home's shared living spaces.

This skilful use of natural materials continues in the kitchen, where stone benchtops and timber cabinets house a 900 mm oven and dishwasher. A large corner window fills this stylish space with natural light and creates the sensation of floating above the courtyard garden.

A deep veranda wrapping the home's south-east corner expands the open plan living zone out to the backyard; a secluded space with a central lawn surrounded by walled garden beds and a spa with views of the reserve. A 12-station automatic reticulation system maintains the lawns and gardens. Brick paths lead to a fire pit and outdoor dining pavilion with a super-sized barbecue and café blinds.

Three bright, generously proportioned bedrooms nestle towards the rear of the floorplan in an arrangement that creates a degree of separation from the shared living zone. The principal bedroom boast access to a private brick-paved patio, shaded by a slatted timber pergola and sheltered by established gardens. Plantation shutters, a large built-in robe and a bright ensuite with a walk-in shower and double vanity fashion a calm and pampering parents' retreat.

Both junior bedrooms have soft carpets underfoot, built-in robes and large windows framing views of the surrounding landscape. These generous rooms share the family bathroom, a well-appointed space with a shower, vanity and WC. A walk-through laundry with storage built into one wall completes the bedroom wing layout.

At one corner of the block is a powered workshop with high clearance for caravan storage. A concrete floor and drive-through access to a sheltered hardstand and fenced utility/storage space fashion multi-purpose and efficient storage and workspace. A powered shed built into the back of the 2-car carport offers additional storage and workspace.

The skill and knowledge of a renowned architect and an experienced craftsman come together in a home that displays timeless style, a faultless layout and perceptive response to site. A quiet Parkerville cul-de-sac, an adjoining reserve and a pitch-perfect home use style and substance to create a blueprint for modern living.
