Created for those with a high expectation lifestyle, this is the ninth and final collaboration by the builder / owner / artist-architect team resulting in a flawless construction, which will stand the test of time. All aspects of this beautiful home are immaculately bespoke and you can play with these houses – the layouts are not dictated to you. The new owner can decide how each individual person enjoys their space and you can communally meet in the large open plan living dining kitchen. Set amongst a spectacular and dramatic natural Sydney Sandstone wall, this space is exquisite to witness – the builders quarried 350 tonnes of soil and rock, which took over 1100 man hours to hand-excavate. This home is undoubtedly a work of art, a masterpiece of deep thought, architecture and endless design by the award-winning architect Dale Jones-Evans.
