Two storeys under a thin flat roof that runs past the walls with a deep dark fascia, stepping down to lower stone volumes: a lounge bay whose roof is a deck, and a family wing whose roof is a glass-guarded terrace under a steel pergola. The master's dressing bay is cantilevered 2.4 m out over the front terrace.

Make it yours

Changes the shape of the building, not what it is covered in.

Moves the eaves, the window proportions and the colours together.

How far the roof oversails the wall.

What finishes the eaves.

A main wall colour and a darker accent. The bill is the same either way: paint is measured by area, not by colour.

Which part of the house takes the second colour.

Not offered, because the rate library holds no rate for them: clay or concrete roof tiles (covering per m2 of roof slope, and the heavier truss that carries them — a tile roof is not a sheet roof with a different skin); stone-coated steel tiles (covering per m2, laid on battens); machine-cut block walling (walling per m2 by block size, and its own foundation walling rate); aluminium or upvc windows (supply and fix per m2 of opening, by system).

Saving creates a full bill you can edit line by line.
