Tucked off Morris Road – putting it in convenience-central – this is a place where bold architecture comes to the fore, in the process delivering uniqueness and an extraordinary sense of space.

Entering the house is a gobsmacking moment, eyes drawn up from acres of polished floorboards to, firstly, the windows rising up to meet double-height ceilings, then the staircase ascending to a mezzanine gallery. The white walls, delineating square pillars, a conservatory window and varying ceiling heights pack a strong visual punch as well.

Except for an en-suited guest bedroom, a powder room (with a door to one of the outdoor areas) and laundry, the entire ground floor comprises floorboarded living zones with multiple doors to covered alfresco areas surrounding the house.

The contemporary kitchen has a stone-look breakfast bench, a load of white cabinetry, soft-grey glass splashbacks, wall oven and stainless-steel 900mm gas cooktop and dishwasher. Three grey-carpeted fitted bedrooms upstairs include the main with an all-white en suite (except for the grey floor tiles), a huge walk-in shower, a spa and dual vanity basins. The similarly decorated main bathroom up here has a modern tub, walk-in shower and a glass bowl-basin; the toilet is separate.

Ducted heating throughout takes care of chilly weather.

One of the pergolas doubles as a drive-through carport, which leads to a massive garage/workshop with mezzanine storage space and high-access roller door for boat or caravan.

There’s a sizeable lawn area for kids’ play and the block spans about 725 square metres.

Hoppers Crossing Secondary and The Grange P-12 colleges, Hogans Corner shops, Pacific Werribee shopping centre and train station are five minutes or less away.
