Even when the style savvy talents of a designer (owner) and an award-wining builder join forces, nothing can prepare you for this...
It was 2014 and the canvas was a 1156sqm (approx.) block. No, that is not a typo - parcels this big in the sought-after east do exist.
And boy, does this architecturally inspired gem do it all such striking justice.
From the sharp lines of its minimalist inspired front façade to the sexiest of kitchens at its light-filled rear, that canvas came to life with courage and without compromise.
You can thank Tek Building and Design for so expertly executing a bold, yet classy, abode of four bedrooms, and the most dynamic gateway to one of the biggest backyards you'll find.
Even after discovering the dimensions, nothing can prepare you for the moment you set eyes on a yard destined for a competition size tennis court and pool.
But first, see how the master bedroom - featuring a walk-in robe and sleek ensuite - makes mornings so marvellous.
Then, discover a home theatre that the owners affectionately named 'The fish bowl' - makes sense when you bring together its expansive glass doors.
But the true genius in its design comes last, when the ceilings suddenly rise to 3-metres and a wall of windows let the winter sun shine a spotlight on expansive open-plan living and that game-changing kitchen.
Smothered in white Caesarstone - creating striking contrast to its jet-black splashbacks - this magazine worthy kitchen is as much your supremely functional best friend as it is testament to owner and builder.
