When a renowned Melbourne architectural firm designs a home you can expect to be astounded.

Designed by Fasham Johnson – a firm specialising in contemporary designs – this Kambah home takes full advantage of its positioning and has been aspected perfectly on the block.

From the street view, the modern four-bedroom home has a facade that perfectly blends into the streetscape with significant trees offering privacy.

The home’s well-crafted design really shines through in its interior with north-facing floor to ceiling glass windows and doors allowing for an abundance of natural light.

The four-bedroom home flows seamlessly with a central corridor connecting all areas of the home.

There is a separate lounge, dining and family area in the home with a feature fireplace enveloping the lounge in a warm ambience.

A contemporary kitchen boasts quality appliances and a walk-in pantry.

Each of the bedrooms are generously sized and embody an understated elegance.

The open-plan design is complemented by a neutral colour scheme and soaring ceilings with stunning exposed timber.
