Our clients required a family home that they could live in without it feeling too big, and accommodate regular visits from their children and family.
Three pavilions are joined together with a linking corridor. The house is anchored by a long Insitu concrete wall that houses the lounge storage, the fireplace to the living area, and supports sheltered seating to the outside area all within the third pavilion. The Tara Crest House faces North towards the Brynderwyn Hills, on a peaceful rural setting.
