THE DEAL
This one surprises you. From the street it's a quiet villa in a tightly held Balcatta group, but step inside and it's clear someone with a real eye has been at work.
The palette is calm and confident. Soft grey walls, warm timber floors and natural light that moves through the home from front to back. The main living, kitchen and dining sit together in one open, easy-flowing space, with a feature wall of vertical timber battens bringing a quiet, sculptural feel to the room.
The kitchen is the kind of renovation that gets the balance right. White subway tile to the ceiling, chunky timber benchtops, gas cooking, dishwasher and yellow pulls that give it just enough edge. A breakfast bar drops in for the casual stuff, and a tucked-away scullery handles the rest so the main run always looks the way you want it to.
Then the bathroom hits you. Terrazzo wall to wall, walk-in shower behind a single pane of glass, floating timber vanity and a vanity mirror lit like a dressing room. It feels lifted straight from a designer hotel, and it sets the tone for the level of finish across the home.
The master bedroom sits privately at the rear with hybrid timber floors and soft sheer curtains, while the second bedroom has been turned into a custom-fitted dressing room and creative studio. Joinery, drawer fronts, hanging space, floating shelves, the lot. A genuine bonus in how it currently functions, and easily flipped back to a traditional bedroom when the brief changes.
Out the back, travertine paving and a woven shade sail create a simple, private outdoor zone. Low maintenance by design, easy to enjoy and finished with the same care as everywhere else.
Reverse-cycle split systems, whole home water filtration, a single lock-up garage and a location that puts Stirling Central, Main Street cafes, schools and freeway access all within easy reach.
