Enjoying an elevated position with a lush open valley outlook traversed by the naturally spring fed “Second Creek”, and adjoining the Burnside Council maintained “Michael Perry Reserve”, this is an exceptional statement of inspired architecture and style, designed by the renowned Drew Edwards.
After patiently searching for some eighteen months, Mr. Edwards finally located this most unusual Slapes Gully Road allotment which has again enabled him to showcase his contemporary flair and extraordinary talent interpreting what he believes a good Australian home should be…It should be open plan living with lots of natural light capturing the views you have to work with whilst emphasizing the ability to live inside and outside at the same time. This property allows that with dual entertaining decks off the main living areas.
