Francis Home Design
by Domination Homes
The Francis is an excellent example of creating rear lot luxury.
​
Despite the challenges of a rear lot, like many other buyers, the clients were enticed by the privacy of a rear lot. The design team at Domination Homes were happy to help make their dream home a reality, working closely with the clients to tailor the home to their needs. The home links visually with its neighbourhood, featuring weatherboard reverse brick veneer accents and internal archways framing key entrances.
The home’s layout focuses on its core, looking inward to the kitchen as the heart of the design. The kitchen is designed for functionality, with the adjoining scullery creating a comfortable place to organise meals or hide any mess when entertaining guests. The dining room frames a view of the pool, allowing the family to feel connected to nature year-round. The alfresco is the perfect place to enjoy a meal in summer, connecting seamlessly with the kitchen for an ideal entertainment experience. The kitchen connects fluidly with the family room, which is large enough to host sleepovers, for the perfect games night or just to snuggle up with a movie and the family.
​
The kids’ bedrooms are on the ground floor, offering them some privacy from the rest of the home through a wrapping hallway. The rooms are connected by an activity room, perfect as a playroom when the kids are young, and transform into a study as the kids are older. The bathroom features a large shower and inset bath, with a simple connection to the laundry to make wash day simple.
Upstairs, the master suite has a hotel feel, with a double ensuite and large dressing room to create a sense of everyday luxury. A second bedroom is perfect for hosting guests, with a spacious robe ensuring they feel comfortable when visiting.
