Virtue Homes was involved with the client from the very start of this project. Externally the vision was to create a home with a unique street appeal different to other homes in the street that would still stand the test of time. Internally the home features large glass windows throughout to “bring the outside in” focusing on the pool and beautifully designed landscape areas. The term “resort feel” was quoted many times by the client in the design process, so it was important the home connected all areas - from the main living, outdoor living and pool area - as well as having a fully functional kitchen area.

The mancave has an ensuite and is joined to the existing garage, making it all appear as one structure.
