Master Builders 2025 House of the Year Competition
Regional Category Winner & Gold Award
At 177sqm, this award-winning show home is a three bedroom, two bathroom home built to invite in sunshine and warmth, with bright, fresh decor and craftsmanship you can see in every detail.
Timber and plaster cladding give the home strong, clean lines and real street presence. Inside, an open-plan living and kitchen area flows around a designer kitchen and butler’s pantry, with doors that slide open to the outdoors – made for entertaining. The landscaped backyard includes a playground zone, so it’s as much a haven for family as it is a space to host.
The palette keeps everything feeling open and light: white walls, pale timber cabinetry and laminate flooring throughout. Bedrooms are generous, and the main suite comes with a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite.
Sustainability is built in, not bolted on. Low-E double-glazed windows with argon gas, LED lighting, and high windows positioned to boost ventilation and cut reliance on artificial light all keep the home efficient year round. Construction materials include sustainably sourced cedar cladding, low-VOC paints and high-performing laminate flooring.
A home that balances refined, contemporary living with genuine environmental responsibility – and a standout example of what Freedom Built delivers.
