Let me take you on a look-in at a home in Bungendore. Not only is it a new forever family home with all the country lifestyle trimmings, but it’s also a prime example of a house built in a very different way.
This large open-plan house with seven-metre-high walls and cathedral ceilings was built with precast panels that are trucked in and assembled on site. The floor slab is then poured and the fishing touches are added – all this in a third of the time of a traditional frame-and-brick home.
Is this the future of building? Only time will tell, but we can rest assured it will be the home of this family for decades to come. Especially considering how customised the interiors are to their living needs and how tranquil and attractive the plains of the surrounding farm are.
Say hello to the animals, kick your boots off and let’s step inside.
