Building Trust: A Country Classic Reflecting a 20 Year Relationship

As you approach the property, you're greeted by a large glass door, offering a view straight through the house to the rolling hills and the horses grazing in the distance. The exterior, clad in white-painted board and batten with a traditional band-sawn finish, captures the rustic charm of a classic country farmhouse. This texture extends through the entrance and into the living areas, creating a seamless blend of indoor and outdoor aesthetics.

The heart of the home is the main living area, where a five-metre vaulted ceiling provides a sense of grandeur and openness. Natural light floods the space through a massive raked window, framing picturesque views of the landscape and bringing in beautiful afternoon sunsets. The living area is adorned with leather seats, sheepskin rugs, and timber floors, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that truly feels like home.

The kitchen seamlessly flows into both the living and dining areas. Traditional elements, such as the porcelain butler's sink, blend effortlessly with modern features, while the dining room includes a booth seat reminiscent of an American diner, reflecting the client’s unique style. This thoughtful design ensures that the kitchen is not just a place for cooking, but a space for family gatherings and cherished moments.

The master bedroom exemplifies the home's country living theme with its deep, dark green colour palette, adding warmth and a touch of tradition. The media room offers a sanctuary for both children and parents, with its dark, moody hues creating a restful retreat within the home. This room provides a perfect escape from the main living areas, highlighting the home’s versatility and comfort.

Every detail in this home, from the chunky skirting boards to the high-quality finishes, reflects the clients’ personality and lifestyle. The result is a quintessential country classic that is both rustic and sophisticated - a perfect blend of tradition and modernity. For Benchmark Homes, this project is more than just a build; it’s a celebration of long-standing relationships and a shared passion for creating beautiful homes. This home on Springs Road is a true testament to what can be achieved when trust, craftsmanship, and design come together to create the epitome of home.
