The Vancouver 29 from Porter Davis puts a beautiful face to the street, with an almost oriental feel in its gabling and timber trims that give it great distinction and a refined elegance from the get-go.
Step inside though, and it’s all Milan World of Style in its sleek designer theme, with chevron-patterned timber flooring, subtle wainscoting and wall panelling, and detailed architraves, cornices and skirts – each announcing quality and Porter Davis attention to detail.
The pearl-grey and white palette, glossy floor tiling, and full-height drifty sheers on large, matte-black-framed windows create a calming canvas on which to add punches of colour and accessories to personal taste.
The spacious, street-facing main bedroom has that gorgeous timber flooring and wall panelling, as well as twin walk-in robes, and a chic dual-basin en suite. The three other fitted bedrooms are in a separate hallway that they share with the laundry, separate toilet, and smart bathroom with a freestanding oval tub.
The timber flooring heads down the entry hallway and flows into an elegant open lounge room where the first of two stunning gold pendants put in an appearance. This is a handy spot for separation of adults and kids when entertaining or just seeking respite from the hustle of the main living domain at the rear.
Anchored by shiny floor tiles that bounce around the light streaming in through multiple windows, the living domain is zoned into sitting, dining and rumpus areas that wrap around the undercover alfresco area. Stacker doors enable lovely flow between indoors and out.
The warmth of timber beneath the stone-topped island bench is the perfect counterpoint to the kitchen’s slickness, while a very long window splashback contributes to the essential airiness. Loads of softest-grey (or warm-white?) streamlined cabinetry with lots of drawers, a walk-in gallery pantry, and all mod-cons accompany an enviable space in which to cook and entertain.
A study nook with work station is tucked into the living domain, enabling supervision of homework or easy interaction with the family while working from home.
And, of course, there’s a double garage in the 29-square floorplan.
Everything about the Vancouver 29 delivers a tangible sense of luxe, light and space, a delight to live in and sure to be coveted by any family looking for high standards and comfy-luxe in spades.
