Candy-red doors with frosted glass inserts make a striking first impression at the Asheville, by APG Homes and on display at Backwater Circle.
The doors are set in a rendered facade which includes a contrasting blade wall, a planter box and a feature sectional door to the double garage.
The red colour scheme is carried through the home with the integration of lots of black highlights and Asian-inspired elements in the interior design adding to the visual impact.
APG Homes sales and marketing manager Leo Callisto said the Asheville had become the company's best-selling single-storey home.
"Response to the home has been really strong in relation to street appeal, finish and presentation," Mr Callisto said
"It has definitely appealed to families. It has all the accommodation and separate living zones to cater for growing families."
Inside the front door is a long entry hall with a media room to the left past the garage entry.
The study or home office is at the front of the home adjacent to the main suite.
The activity room and bedrooms are separate, yet close to the kitchen for easy access and where parents can keep an eye on their children.
The wall to the north, which runs alongside the living and dining rooms, has a long stretch of floor-to-ceiling windows.
A sliding door opens from the dining area to the alfresco entertaining area which is under the main roof at the side of the home.
The galley-style kitchen has a freestanding breakfast bar with a double sink.
There is a 900mm stainless-steel underbench oven, gas hotplate and range hood against the back wall and the benchtops are
stone, including a slab end to the island bench.
Generous amounts of storage include overhead cupboards and extra pot drawers as well as an appliance cupboard.
The laundry is behind the kitchen and has a sliding door to outside.
In the children's wing, the three bedrooms have built-in robes, there is a bathroom with a shower and bath and a separate toilet.
