new home | hopetoun circuit | yarralumla

This single-level home was designed for comfort, connection and sustainability—offering a luxurious yet understated lifestyle. Nestled on a narrow site, the plan makes smart use of passive solar design, natural materials and thoughtful zoning to create peaceful, light-filled spaces that feel both private and welcoming.

The layout stretches east to west, with every living space oriented to the north. You’ll enjoy warm winter sun through high-performance double glazing, with polished concrete floors capturing and releasing heat, while deep eaves offer summer shading. A central open-plan kitchen, dining and living area—with a ceiling lined in reclaimed hardwood—opens directly to a shaded outdoor zone and swimming pool.

This core space acts as the home’s heart, separating a kids’ zone to the west from the master suite and a private retreat to the east. Carefully placed windows frame garden views and manage sunlight, supporting the home’s 8.3-star energy rating and exceptional air-tightness.

Externally, simple forms are elevated through finely detailed materiality—timber cladding conceals the garage
