This is the first time in the history of the NSW Housing Industry Association Awards Program that a display home has been awarded the prestigious Home of the Year honour.
Because it is a display home rather than a private residence, anyone can inspect the house and potentially build their own version, depending on the site and other consiuderations.
The 490sq m house was built over nine months at Bella Vista Waters, Norwest last year by Gremmo Homes. The company is owned by brothers Michael, Andrew, Richard and David Gremmo.
This home also won the Display Home of the Year, Outdoor Project of the Year and was a finalist in the kitchen and bathroom category.
The company's awards success adds to a strong result at the recent NSW Master Builders Association Awards. Their display home was awarded as Display Home of the Year and Display Pool of the Year. Gremmo Homes was also a finalist in the Master Builder of the Year Category.
“These achievements are a recognition of the outstanding efforts of our team of designers, office staff, tradesmen and suppliers. We are truly fortunate to have such a talented group of people to work together with,” said director Richard Gremmo. “We are honoured to accept these awards on their behalf and we thank them for their hard work and dedication.
The winning home was designed to create an impression.
“Our objective was to create a contemporary design with a relaxed feel,” says Richard.
“There are finishes and inclusions that you wouldn’t usually find in a display home. We have over 20 years of experience as a custom home builder, and we are aware of the design concepts and inclusions that are both popular and functional.
“We have worked hard to create an adaptable layout that can be easily adjusted to accommodate unique circumstances such as narrow width lots and sloping sites”.
The central living room is the heart of the home. Guests can enjoy views of the sparkling adjacent pool and landscaped yards, the perfect space for relaxation with its fire place and bar.
The fire place is framed with a stack bond brickwork structure which serves as the structural centerpiece of the home.
The home is located at 106 Edgewater Drive, Bella Vista Waters, open Friday to Monday, 10am to 4pm. www.gremmohomes.com.au
