Plot 1 This house differs from the others on this site in having only two storeys and with four, rather than five, bedrooms. It nevertheless boasts an equally contemporary design and layout, the flowing open plan main living area and large deck making the best use of the panoramic outlook. The entrance is on the upper floor, approached through electrically operated hardwood gates into the enclosed courtyard space allowing parking as well as access to the generous double garage (fitted with extra wide electrically operated doors). The hardwood boarded front door opens into a hall with open stairwell down to the bedroom level, past the cloakroom and coats cupboard is the large utility room with a door into the garage, as well as a back door to the garden. The hallway also leads through to the cosy sitting room or snug, which could be used as a family room or nursery for a younger family. The main feature is, however, straight through past the stair, where as soon as the door is opened, the uninterrupted view opens up through the living/dining/kitchen space and beyond the deck. This space is actually larger in area than most of our three storey houses, and is slightly different in that the “U” shape allows a degree of visual separation to the cooking part of the kitchen, which also has a separate door to the hall. The main orientation is to the east, but the living area benefits from south facing glazing as well as the high level windows for evening sun, and there is a fuel efficient jetmaster fire with stone surround to act as focal point. The lower floor is given over to all four bedrooms and a study (which could be considered a fifth bedroom of course). The master suite is generous with separate dressing area, bath, shower, and double basins in the en-suite, and of course the views out through the east facing windows, the orientation also providing morning sun. The guest bedroom has its own en-suite shower room, and the family bathroom is provided with both bath and separate shower. All of these bedrooms face east, thus also being ideally orientated forPlot 1,both morning sun and views.
