Masterfully designed and unique both aesthetically and structurally, 102 Ormiston Circuit in Harrison is a four-bedroom, two-bathroom home that isn’t afraid to make a statement.
Some may think that architectural adventurism should be reserved for bachelor pads and multi-million-dollar mansions, but this property proves that a family home can be just as exciting.
“This is a real family home. There’s entertaining potential, plenty of space, spacious bedrooms, but it’s certainly not cookie-cutter – everything is out of the box,” Luton Properties agent Peter White says.
Custom-built by the owner, this home has numerous unique touches on the macro and the micro level, starting with the layout.
The main suite, with a walk-in robe and ensuite, is thoughtfully located in its own section of the house for privacy.
The open kitchen-dining with walk-in pantry is the centre of the home and connects directly to the sunken lounge area, which provides a unique, fun space to relax.
“The sunken lounge area is really special, and it has a great outlook to the pool. The entire space is custom-built. It’s a great feature,” Peter says.
And that’s all before you get to the multi-purpose room, the alfresco area, the front courtyard and the separate laundry room. The home has been expertly designed to make maximum use of the space.
From the greater overarching design ideals to the smaller touches, the builder has spared no expense, putting thought and effort into every corner of the home.
“Features like the circular window in the living room let in heaps of light from the north-facing aspect, but smaller features like recessed custom ambient lighting throughout do so much to make the home more welcoming,” Peter says.
That’s not the half of it. The property boasts 2.7 metre ceilings, extra-tall doorways, wide hallways, dual showerheads, underfloor heating, a CCTV system, ample storage throughout and premium fixtures wherever you look.
“The builder has not neglected a single aspect of this home,” Peter says.
“All of the finishes are exceptionally high-end. The bedrooms are generous and the chef’s kitchen has extensive custom cabinetry, an oversized island, glass splashback and a recessed rangehood.”
The property is built around the pool, and it makes for a stunning centrepiece. Like the rest of the home, it’s functional as well as aesthetically pleasing, with spa jets and solar-heating. It invites year-round relaxation, especially with its covered deck area.
“As if the home itself wasn’t enough, it’s also in a great spot in Harrison. It’s quiet, near schools, parks and playgrounds, and it’s just a short drive to the city,” Peter says.
Often, the best home is one that works without the owner having to improve anything or put any work in. This home is absolutely move-in ready and future-proof with a low-maintenance garden and all the modern amenities that one could ask for.
It’s rare for a home to be this practical while displaying such a bold design streak. Perfectly combining sleek modernity with personality and warmth is no easy task, yet this home does it with ease.
