This two dwelling house development redefines the expectations of small lot living, positioned in Southport close to the trending Brickworks establishment. This clever design has allowed two large homes to fit on a 668m2 lot with no sacrifice to the standard of living. The architecturally designed bespoke development adds value to this upcoming area appealing to a broad clientele ranging from young professionals, families and empty nesters seeking a brand new home close to the Gold Coast CBD.

The building itself is a fusion of contemporary natural materials including stone, brick, timber, cladding and glass that offers clean lines and angles of a modern home, but combined with the luscious tropical landscape it is welcoming and unassuming. The harmonised yet individually styled facades offer modern geometric shapes, with individualised colour palates to not only meet council conditions but blend with the existing houses in the street.

The overall foot print of the home maximises the land available by the use of double carports built on the front boundary and one meter setbacks to the southern services sides. As you enter the properties you are greeted with an articulated entrance including security gates and luscious palm trees. Situated over two levels these homes have all the modern features that is expected in a family home- including four large bedrooms, master including walk in wardrobes and ensuite, a family bathroom, separate powder room and laundry, butler’s pantry, fully enclosed media room, outdoor dining and backyard.

The layout focuses on the key design element of maximising the northern aspect, allowing natural light to flow through every room, while still obtaining privacy. The down stairs living space allows every opportunity for open plan living, and co-exisitance with the tropical landscape though numerous access points to courtyards , alfresco & backyard, capitalizing on the land size available.

This individualisation process of the project further highlights the high standard of workmanship and attention to detail in the overall finishes selected and customised to each home. The careful management of craftsmanship of accentuating style while keeping it at an affordable price, has created absolute value for money.

As you walk throughout this development you are wowed by the skill that Danny possessed amalgamating design with affordable materials to complete a stunning contemporary home. These buildings really do exude contemporary living.
