Burrawang Terrace, Mt. Martha

This excellently designed home has been designed to maximize its spectacular views over Port Phillip Bay, as well as utilize light to energy efficiency.

The external walls are a combination of Blue Onyx face bricks & 75mm rendered foam. An expansive use of Merbau for fascias & decks gives a warm natural timber look to the outside. All windows are double glazed & treated to maintain maximum efficiency.

Entry is on the upper level & upon entry you are greeted with an expanse of polished timber floor boards and wide entrance hall. The hall leads to a massive open living area which includes kitchen & dining. The tall raked ceiling has 5 large exposed, recycled Ironbark timber beams which came from the St. Kilda Pier. 2 sets of bi-fold doors open onto the large deck which offers breath taking views. The upper floor also consists of the master bedroom with a walk-in robe & ensuite. A powder room & cloak cupboard as well. A polished timber staircase with concealed strings leads to the lower floor. The lower level has 2 bedrooms, laundry, bathroom & large rumpus room with kitchenette that overlooks the bay. The home has reverse cycle air conditioning & boasts a solar hot water unit.

The overall feel & use of space in this home is an absolute credit to the Architect, Scotty Pizzey.
