Porter Davis Homes
Resort cool
A luxury home designed to make every day feel like a holiday
Porter Davis Homes Queensland was awarded Best Display Home in the $400,001–$500,000 category at the prestigious 2018 HIA-CSR Queensland Housing Awards for the Hayman 39, currently on display at Upper Kedron. Set across two storeys, the stunning display home is modelled on a six-star holiday villa in the Bahamas and refl ects the contemporary and relaxed resort-style living that Queenslanders love.
Wander down the hallway of this gloriously open home and you’ll feel yourself exhale. With masses of glass and just the right balance of communal and private spaces, the Hayman 39 channels a sophisticated resort style that’s fresh and luxurious with plenty of textural play, soothing colours, modern timber fi nishes and engaging decorative patterns.
“With its natural tones, crafted appeal and raw, paredback palette, the Hayman has a relaxed vintage elegance that is a marked departure from the traditional tropical motifs and bright, bold colours usually seen in resort-styled display homes,” says Grant Whinnett, Queensland state manager for Porter Davis Homes. “This is thanks to the Bahamas World of Style decorating theme that perfectly complements the Queensland lifestyle.”
This is a home that impresses from the moment you open the front door when a sense of space and light washes over you. Your eye is then drawn to the stylish, bright and airy

entertaining zone comprising the kitchen, a generous family area and a grand poolside alfresco, where you can picture yourself relaxing with family and friends. Downstairs also features a home theatre and separate study. Upstairs is a place of retreat, with four bedrooms, including the idyllic master suite, and a games room.
“Exclusive to the Hayman 39 is the New England facade with balcony, which ensures the home makes a breathtaking fi rst impression. Inspired by the simple graciousness of the grand homes to be found in The Hamptons, USA — an internationally renowned string of seaside communities favoured by the rich and famous — the classic facade works perfectly with the Queensland way of life and gives the Hayman 39 immense kerb-side appeal,” says Grant.
This is the second year running Porter Davis Homes Queensland has celebrated winning a HIA-CSR Best Display Home award, with the home builder taking out the 2017 Best Brisbane Display Home in the over $500,001 category for its Marriott Grange design.
Says Grant, “We’re thrilled to be recognised for a prestigious HIA award for the second year in a row. The recognition is testament to the innovative design and high quality finishes that customers can expect when they purchase or build a Porter Davis home. Quality is central to our company’s identity and it’s something we take very seriously.”
