Custom Acreage Home
Builder: Candor Homes | Designer: Candor Homes
Set on a picturesque acreage in Millers Forest, this beautifully crafted home by Candor Homes is a true celebration of its surroundings.
With the Hunter River flowing along one side of the property and sweeping green paddocks stretching out in every other direction, the design needed to do more than simply look good , it needed to connect the home to its landscape. Thoughtfully selected windows play a starring role in achieving exactly that.
In the central living area, custom fixed raked windows draw the eye upward and outward, framing uninterrupted river views and flooding the space with natural light throughout the day. These striking windows create a real sense of openness, while large sliding doors extend the living space outdoors, opening directly onto a generous patio that’s perfect for relaxed family living or entertaining guests.
The kitchen continues this seamless indoor–outdoor connection with the inclusion of Urban Plus bifold windows. Designed with entertaining in mind, they open effortlessly to the patio, making it easy to serve food and drinks while staying connected to the action outside, making it an ideal feature for long lunches, weekend barbecues and casual get-togethers.
Throughout the rest of the home, classic double-hung windows have been used to complement the country-style façade. Not only do they enhance the home’s traditional homestead character, but they also provide practical ventilation and timeless street appeal that suits the rural setting beautifully.
The result is a home that feels both refined and relaxed. It’s a modern Australian homestead that respects its rural environment while offering contemporary comfort and functionality. Every window has been carefully considered, proving that great design is often found in the details.
The windows and doors are all from the Urban Plus range, and finished in Pearl White.
