MADDREN HOMES Five out of Five
Five out of five – three gold and two silver. An outstanding result to walk away with at the Registered Master Builders’ House of the Year Awards last week, and we couldn’t be happier. Here’s the first of five that we’ll be profiling over the coming weeks, to show just what goes into an awardwinning home. This ‘Modern Classic’ weatherboard, with four bedrooms and three bathrooms over two levels, was a gold winner in the NuLook New Home $700,000 – $1million category. What sets this warm and inviting family home apart is the modern, contemporary design with classic traditional touches. Inviting timber flooring flows through the main living level, which is complemented by timber detailing in the kitchen and butler’s pantry, to create a rustic touch reminiscent of eras gone by. Entertaining and relaxing is well and truly catered for, with an expansive wrap-around deck that flows to the living area through bi-fold doors. Quality craftsmanship is in our veins and it’s humbling when this is recognised with gold. The awards are not just about design, but the level of craftsmanship that has gone into a build, which is closely inspected by the judges to determine its award worthiness. Energy efficiency is also on the judges’ radar, and this home ticks those boxes with a ducted ventilation system for efficient cooling throughout the year and a crackling built-in fireplace to snuggle up in front of for the colder months. A nice touch has been added on the upper level with a cosy library nook with window seat, for some bookish escapism on a rainy day.
