Classic Home belies it's age.

belie
bɪˈlʌɪ/
verb
3rd person present: belies
  1. 1.
    (of an appearance) fail to give a true impression of (something).


So I guess that means it tells lies and if you were to drive passed this home you would be forgiven for thinking it must have been an original home in the area that had been nestled within planted estates that surrounded it and had surrendered the land for suburban creep. 

Surely this home is not a similar age to the homes that share it's street now?


With rendered walls carefully chosen and applied to look like a Spanish villa of a previous century and simple but elegant detailing, this home exudes a classic and timeless style.  Tall glazed pairs of doors, tall parapet walls, large rough timber front doors all come together to show strength and commitment to a central theme.

Designed for and built by Fernihough Homes around 1990 for the daughter of a very prominent businessman and her husband and their young family.
