A harmonious blend of modern architecture and traditional design, featuring a stunning outdoor living space with a 12m swimming pool, spa, and tennis court, all set against the serene backdrop of Clevedon Scenic Reserve.

What more could you want in an outdoor living space, a 12m swimming pool, spa pool, pool pavilion, and tennis court........all built into a undiluting back drop of the Clevedon Scenic Reserve. Tranquillity and privacy is in abundance. The space was designed around the existing house which has a traditional expression, stone clad with a hipped corrugated iron roof. Sitting central on the levelled hill top surrounded by lawn and driveway, it was important to create a dynamic relationship between the old and new and to provide not only an architectural edge, but also an amazing space for the growing family. The pavilion's opens up into an amazing indoor or outdoor living space, allowing for the ever changing weather. The dialog between old and new is set up by contrasting the form and fabric of the new pavilion with the existing house. The new pavilion has a flat roofed structure with walls, sheathed in a taught filigree timber skin thereby forming a counterpoint to the massive crenulated bulk of the existing stone clad building. A language of steel and concrete structural elements in the pavilion assists in achieving the desired ethereal nature of the new architecture. The gabion walls are employed as a landscaping element to define, delineate and undersling the new pavilion.

“The over-arching feeling which comes from Faulkner Construction is that they have the experience and professionalism to handle whatever issues a building program can throw up. Headed by owner Ross Faulkner, the team of Sieng, Alastair, Andrea and all the tradesmen at Faulkner Construction are a formidable team who are craftsman in their field and produce a product to the highest standard, proven by the awards they regularly win at the Master Builders House of the Year Competition. We genuinely enjoyed this building process, which is something you don't often hear about building a new house. Coming to site most days to see the changes and progress being made, we were very involved in the build and quite particular about the details of our house and Faulkner respected this and delivered an amazing result which has exceeded our expectations. It has actually been difficult writing this reference because words don't seem to adequately express our gratitude for the care and professionalism Faulkner Construction took with our project, particularly Sieng, the site foreman. He is completely unflappable and his attention to detail and ability to get on with the job was a large contributor to the success of the project. When we were looking for a builder we contacted a previous client of Faulkner Construction for a reference and their advice was to look no further than Faulkner Construction. Having now completed our own project with them we can totally echo this advice and if we decide to build again they are the only builders we would consider using.”
