Cork Alfresco at Mt Barker

Hickinbotham’s Cork Alfresco is a classic family home that has been perfectly suited to a contemporary lifestyle and aesthetic, says design director Ruth Vagnarelli. The 217.49sqm home offers three bedrooms, two living zones (one could become a fourth bedroom if required), two bathrooms and a double garage. A corner alfresco off the open-plan living/ dining/ kitchen zone at the heart of the home means entertaining will be a breeze all year round.

“The open plan living, dining and alfresco is made for entertaining,” says Ruth. “The flow encourages connectivity while the butler’s pantry and dedicated washing up area does the heavy lifting and conceals extra mess. “The parents’ retreat at the front of the home and children’s bedrooms at the rear, as well as the separate home theatre, gives everyone the space they need to come together as well as quiet relaxation.”

The Cork Alfresco by Hickinbotham is on display at Aston Hills estate, Pine Valley Parade, Mt Barker. Open Sat | Sun | Mon | Wed, 1pm-5.30pm, hickinbotham.com.au
