Home,

Terracette presents a brand-new, beautifully resolved home, architecturally designed around long-term wellness and sustainability.
Nestled amidst a landscaped garden, with a restorative heated mineral-salt plunge pool, this spacious four-bedroom home surrounds you in considered luxury and unencumbered serenity.
This two-storey residence reflects a deliberate process of prioritisation, refinement, and care by Terracette, in collaboration with Breathe, Australia’s most awarded sustainable architecture firm. A sensory delight, it will appeal to the design-conscious owner-occupier who values captivating architecture where every element feels intentional.
OUR VISION
Deliver a beautifully-resolved home, designed around what matters most, built to perform for decades. With the seamless transitions between spaces and materials, it’s designed to feel exceptional from day one.
Space to breathe
Set back from the street behind a landscaped arrival, the experience unfolds gradually. The transition from public to private feels calm and considered. A generous mudroom welcomes daily life with ease before opening into light-filled spaces that connect seamlessly to garden, sky, and landscape.
Natural materials create warmth and permanence. Large openings draw sunlight and green aspects deep inside. Every room feels purposeful and restorative. Every detail feels settled, supporting the rhythms of daily life. This home welcomes you with a sense of ease from the moment you arrive.
