Set against the majestic backdrop of towering gums and overlooking the serene Dennis Lake, Obsidian Home stands as a testament to architectural ingenuity and unwavering dedication. A knockdown and rebuild on a 5621m2 canvas, this magnificent home was designed by Pride Home Designs.
Drawing inspiration from the rugged elegance of New Zealand’s architectural landscape and the charm of barn-style homes, Obsidian Home is a symphony of sophistication, luxury, and resilience.
At the heart of Obsidian Home lies an unwavering commitment to the allure of the colour black. From its very inception, the mantra echoed through every aspect of the design – if in doubt, choose black. This daring choice, amidst challenges such as the sloping block, elevated sewer lines, and the post-COVID price hikes, served as both a challenge and a triumph of design.
Spanning an impressive 654m2, Obsidian Home is divided into three distinct pavilions – the central living, master wing, and children’s retreat. Each pavilion, with its raked ceilings constructed from steel portal frames and adorned with black prefinished timber boards, exudes a sense of timeless elegance. From the sunken lounge with its indoor-outdoor fireplace to the master wing’s opulent sanctuary boasting a gas fireplace and an open ensuite with luxurious amenities.
Amidst the challenges posed by the block and the proximity to the Daisy Hill State Forest, Obsidian Home utilises bushfire-resistant materials and energy-efficient solutions such as solar panels with battery systems, insulation, and ventilation, this home ensures year-round comfort without compromising on sustainability.
Despite its grandeur and expansive layout, Obsidian Home remains intimately connected with its natural surroundings. Raked Hi-Light windows flood the living spaces with natural light, offering panoramic views of the lush landscape beyond. The seamless fusion of indoor and outdoor living spaces creates a sense of harmony, inviting the serenity of nature to permeate every corner of this beautiful home.
Put simply with its stunning street frontage & homely ambiance, this home embodies the epitome of functionality, tailored to the unique needs and desires of our clients.
