"Shapely pieces in natural tones bring visual interest to an interior without distracting from a spectacular viere."
Light Touch
House & Garden
Every time the owners of this five-bedroom home on Sydney's Lower North Shore open their raw-timber gate, they travel to a special place. With its arched colonnade, timber beams, terracotta-tiled roof, crazy-paving and romantic courtyard, this handsome hideaway has the allure of a Spanish hacienda.
Now stripped of extraneous additions, this Sydney home feels calmer, more comfortable - and truer to its architect's original vision.
