MT WHITESTONE

Set against a backdrop of rolling hills and open paddocks, this home has a striking modern farmhouse presence, with its linked gabled pavilions, crisp white cladding, and bold black-framed windows. A dramatic feature gable takes centre stage at the entry, its floor-to-ceiling glazing catching the last light of the day, while traditional post-and-rail fencing and a scattering of established trees ground the home firmly in its rural setting.

Inside, the home opens up into soaring vaulted ceilings with clerestory windows that flood the living spaces with natural light, while sheer curtains soften the black window frames and add a relaxed, easy elegance. A freestanding wood fire heater anchors the main living zone, perfect for cosy nights once the sun goes down over the surrounding hills.

The kitchen makes a bold statement with sleek black cabinetry offset by crisp white benchtops and splashback tiling, while a butler’s-style layout keeps the space functional for everyday family life. Arched doorways add a soft architectural detail throughout, leading through to a dedicated study and additional living zones, including a moody, black-walled media room complete with plush modular seating, the perfect retreat for movie nights.

Neutral, textural furnishings run throughout, with tan leather sofas, timber dining settings, and warm rugs creating an inviting, lived-in feel across the open-plan living and dining areas. The ensuite continues the home’s considered material palette, with deep green feature tiles, stone-look finishes, and matte black tapware adding a point of difference.

Outside, a covered alfresco area connects seamlessly to the expansive backyard, framed by the same striking gable roofline, creating the perfect spot to sit back and take in the surrounding rural views.
