What’s on the Drawing Board – generating retirement income through subdividing.
Our clients here were looking for a simple, modern design for a home to build on land they weren’t using. Subdividing off approximately 300 square metres of a relatively flat section, we made the most of a sun-drenched section with an L-shaped design facing north and west.
Folded metal cladding on the exterior walls and the roofing create one continuous metal fall with simple, clean lines that are complemented by vertical timber panels on the interior walls.
To give the home a sense of spaciousness and to maximise the natural light into the house, we angled the ceiling to match the roof and used bi-fold doors to open up the living area out onto a level deck which then extends out into the garden.
The result is an attractive single level, 3-bedroom house that will appeal to a range of buyers.
