“It was quite funny,” says Anna. “We had just decided we wanted to move so Jo began searching in our preferred area. It came up straight away. She turned to me and said ‘this is our new home’.” Two hours later, they inspected the property and officially sealed the deal.
“We loved that the house had been so thoughtfully designed [by architect Kate Rae],” says Jo. “It took advantage of the location, breezes and the northern light. At 140m2, it’s not too big and had a bedroom at the front that could be used as an office for Anna. The 48m2 garage at the rear was perfect for my art studio, and there’s plenty of room for our cocker spaniel, Suki,” says Jo.
Kate designed the home as a downsizer so it’s all on a single level, inside and out. There’s a generous outdoor area for alfresco living and entertaining, plus a sociable open-plan kitchen/ living/dining area. Two of the home’s three spacious bedrooms include ensuites.
