Homeshelf is taking a look at Stroud Homes’ top family home designs, to give you the rundown on their most functional floorplans.
The Avoca 227 is Stroud Homes’ most sought after ‘traditional’ town design. This single storey design features a range of facades, from classic weatherboards to modern angular roofs, to exposed brickwork.
Boasting four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and two living spaces, it packs a lot into just 24.5 squares. The master suite, with its lengthy walk-in robe and ensuite, adds a layer of luxury. The other two rooms feature built in robes and a nearby bathroom & WC for practicality.
The galley style kitchen, with an island and walk-in pantry, creates an inviting cooking area - integrated with the open plan dining and living areas for social gatherings. There is an additional separate media room, which would make a perfect games room or home theatre.
The Avoca 227 has the optionality for split-level adjustments. Stroud Homes are able to accommodate for ‘front lower’, ‘front higher’ or ‘side split level’ land lots.
The Cedar 164 is designed for larger land lots, with a 16.5m frontage. Featuring windows on all four sides of the home, the house gets ample, consistent light. This provides cross-ventilation, and preserves picturesque views.
The Cedar 164 home blends simplicity and practicality in its floorplan: with the bedrooms on one end of the house and living areas on the other. A generous front verandah and porch are built into the home’s facade, giving space to take in the surrounding expanse of land. Stroud Homes have put together various facade designs to suit a range of aesthetic preferences: from sandy exposed bricks, to white accented weatherboards, and rendered concrete.
Designed with expansion possibilities in mind, it doesn’t feature a garage, catering to those with existing outbuildings, or future extension plans.
