Name: Canopy
Element: Air
Why: Elevated voids, raked ceilings, and treetop vistas create a light, spacious rhythm rooted in nature.
Set among lush bushland and the tranquillity of Fig Tree Pocket, this expansive five-bedroom residence blends grand scale with attention to detail.
The Scenic façade introduces strong horizontal lines softened by layered cladding and stonework, complemented by timber battens, ceiling and a sculptural entry portico that extends a warm welcome. Large glazing and a generous pivot door complete the bold arrival.
Inside, more than 600 square metres of living space unfold across two levels. The layout balances functionality and indulgence with double alfresco zones, media room, rumpus, and a wine cellar beneath raked ceilings. Carefully considered lighting features throughout including clusters, wall sconces, and concealed strips lighting, add mood and architectural texture.
The kitchen anchors the heart of the home, accompanied by a butler’s pantry, walk-in storage, and mudroom. Natural stone benchtops meet custom cabinetry with integrated brushed gunmetal handles and warm timber accents, while Miele appliances are fully built-in for a seamless finish.
A central stair void enhances vertical flow, culminating in a bridge that links upper-level bedrooms to a private rumpus and balcony, where treetop views stretch across the surrounding canopy. The stair design pairs clean-lined balustrades with timber treads, adding sculptural definition against open voids.
Finishes across the home are thoughtfully layered with feature wall panelling in select rooms, oak-toned cabinetry in dry areas, and consistent stone surfaces in wet zones. All complemented by brushed gunmetal tapware and neutral colour palettes.
Outdoor living is embraced via covered decks and garden-facing rooms that open to the central pool. Framed by a large picture window visible from the entry, the water becomes a visual anchor inviting calm and reinforcing the home’s connection to its natural surrounds.
This home is an architectural statement rooted in lifestyle, offering layered comfort and design clarity for modern living at nature’s edge.
