Stylish: The bathroom features a large bath and fl oor-to-ceiling imported Italian tiles. With bright timber fl oors and high ceilings throughout, wide hallways, fewer doors and an open-plan design, the new home at 6 Hakea Court, Moama, feels spacious and roomy. The north-east facing home allows plenty of natural light in, adding to the bright and open feel throughout the home. The magnifi cent property took a year to design and build, but the hard work and eff ort has certainly been worthwhile. The owners focused heavily on the kitchen area and their dedication and planning have resulted in a fantastic cooking and dining area. The spacious kitchen features a stunning single-piece stone splashback that not only looks incredible, but with no grout joints or corners it makes cleaning a breeze. The large kitchen area also features a butler’s pantry that boasts an extra sink and plenty of extra storage space to make staging a dinner party a breeze. With fantastic modern appliances and gorgeous stone bench tops, the kitchen is the perfect combination of style and functionality. The kitchen joins seamlessly to the spacious dining and lounge area, making it perfect for family dinners and hosting guests. The spacious dining and lounge areas open to a gorgeous covered alfresco dining space, and the stunning swimming pool and fi re pit area are perfect for entertaining athome no matter the season. A nook complete with a solid stone bench top completes the lounge room, providing a great place for a desk and computer.

Meanwhile, a sitting room nearby provides a quiet place to relax, away from the hustle and bustle of the main kitchen and dining area. Towards the back of the house there is a third living area near the second bathroom and bedrooms, providing a fantastic space for kids to hang out with friends, with the added bonus of access to the backyard as well. The large backyard has tonnes of space that makes it the perfect place for children to play in. The yard features a vegie patch and an abundance of greenery, but still maintains that desirable lowmaintenance element. Back inside, the bathrooms boast fl oorto-ceiling imported Italian tiles, with both removable and rain shower heads in the ensuite and second bathrooms, while passive cooling and heating and refrigerant fl ooring make it easy to keep the home at that perfect, comfortable temperature.
