This compact two-storey home is cleverly designed to offer functional living on a sloped site, with a clear separation between private and social spaces. The lower level features two comfortable bedrooms, a shared bathroom, and a welcoming entry hall, while the upper level is devoted to a bright open-plan living and dining area anchored by a stylish U-shaped kitchen. Large sliding doors extend the living space onto a generous outdoor deck, perfect for entertaining or relaxing. The home’s exterior blends vertical timber battens with horizontal cladding in natural tones, enhanced by expansive glazing and a central double-height window over the stairwell that brings in abundant daylight and connects the indoors with the surrounding landscape. Elevated on timber posts, the structure integrates gracefully with the terrain, achieving both simplicity and architectural charm.
