Prime Position: New Homes

— By Rhys Prka

Striking from the outset, this Trigg custom build from AMG Home Builders offers up coastal living at its finest.

Not content with being average, the home’s immaculate grace and fanciful sense of style elevates the abode to something special.

Located on a sloping corner block, this four-bedroom, two-bathroom residence takes full advantage of its beachside location with a design palette which exudes a sought-after coastal lifestyle.

AMG Home Builders Director Adam Spadaccini told New Homes the home’s positioning offered an interesting design proposition.

“A sloping site always presents its challenges,” he said.

“The home was designed to flow within the contours of the land by

incorporating a series of external steps to create an open-plan layout with minimal passageways.”

The focus of the home’s sloping block resulted in a free-flowing floor plan.

The modern, architectural skillion-style facade hints at the luxury which awaits within, incorporating a dynamic mix of materials such as granite, silver travertine and large windows to filter light throughout the living areas.

Soft colours and floor-to-ceiling windows allow natural light to flood into the home while also offering gorgeous views.

The home’s impressive qualities continue as you step inside to an entertainer’s dream.

“This home was designed to entertain, relax and socialise in style,” Mr Spadaccini said.

The seaside location presented multiple advantages, and the clients wanted to take advantage of the prime view.

“Capturing the ocean views was a high priority in the design brief,” Mr Spadaccini said.

“The owners wanted a seamless transition from indoor to outdoor, which

was created through a series of stacking and sliding doors, together with extensive glass panels to capture the coastal vista.”

The entertainment and outdoor areas were important to the clients, however, Mr Spadaccini wanted to make sure the home’s design took into account the drawbacks which came with coastal living.

“A centrally located alfresco was created to provide adequate protection from the prevailing winds and in turn be used year-round,” he said.

The kitchen acts as a central point and fits nicely into the home’s overall theme of entertainment and relaxation in equal measures.

“The kitchen is a standout and positioned to be the main focus when entertaining,” Mr Spadaccini said.

“A 1.5m deep island bench with a beautiful selection of engineered stone and white cabinetry creates an inviting space to sit around.”

The kitchen anchors the open-plan layout of the area, with the dining and living areas blending seamlessly together with the outdoor balcony through the large doors.

The outdoor comes into its own through the backyard, where the pristine landscaping and jacuzzi combine to create a pleasant and tranquil area.

The clear use of space and zoning creates a generous home for a growing family to reside in.

“Both indoor and out, the design was carefully thought through to allow for the modern family to grow,” Mr Spadaccini said.

The cleverly zoned areas cater for the kids as well as adults.”
