These home owners, with a deep love for nature, farm life and hosting friends and family, set out to create a modern farmhouse celebrating the outdoors while offering the perfect space for entertaining. “Built with natural elements like stone and wood, our home blends rustic charm with contemporary comfort,” the owner says proudly.

The heart of this property is its open-plan living area – an airy, flowing space with expansive windows and sliding doors that dissolve the boundaries between inside and out. The kitchen, lounge and dining area extend seamlessly onto a patio featuring a sparkling pool, a boma for cosy evening fires and a wood-fired pizza oven beside a herb garden.
