President’s Award: Gordon Burke Constructions’ Scandinavian-inspired home

A Scandi-inspired home ideal for a family

Offering incredible value for money, Gordon Bourke Constructions proves style and function doesn’t have to be compromised on a budget.

This family-owned local building company has created a stunning Scandinavianinspired home with the façade taking full advantage of the two-street frontage. Lagom in Middle Ridge is designed with eye-catching street appeal. The modern front façade includes French pattern travertine tiling and large glass windows within the multiple feature gables. The layout of the home maximises the north-easterly aspect, with the main open-plan living area and garden space conveniently located on this corner. Natural light floods the dining and living room through extra-large windows. A feature fireplace of matching French pattern travertine tiling to the external walls takes centre stage. Opposite in the living space is a gourmet kitchen with a hidden butler’s pantry. A centrally located media room separates the master suite from the remaining three bedrooms. The suite is pure luxury with his and hers Hollywood-style walk-in-robe, and lavish ensuite featuring twin basins and walk-in shower. There is also a separate powder room, laundry, double garage and study nook, as well as the main bathroom with wet room style layout including free-standing bath and walk-in shower. The contemporary colour palette and finishes throughout the interior give the home a luxury feel. With extensive land development partnerships, Gordon Bourke Homes can offer a wide range of flexible house and land packages to suit all budget and lifestyle requirements. Their innovative in-house design team can bring together all the best aspects of your chosen site and enhance it with a house plan that is modern, functional, and affordable.
