16 Lowe Street

Effortless Modern Living, Beautifully Considered

Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in the friendly village of Tylden, 16 Lowe Street is a striking modern home. Set on 992m² the home offers a wonderful sense of space, privacy and connection to its natural surroundings. The home's considered design of three interconnected wings and a covered outdoor area combines easy family living, entertaining and hybrid work. The home is fully electric - it is powered by a 7.4kw solar system, has battery storage, an EV charger, energy-efficient heat-pump hot water system, induction cooking and reverse cycle heating and cooling in every room. It is well insulated with double-glazed windows and doors and honeycomb cellular blinds, and grey water can be used for the toilets.

With an understated contemporary aesthetic throughout, the colour palate draws on white, black, soft grey, and natural tones. The kitchen, dining and living wing is graced by an elegant VJ-panelled vaulted ceiling, with Vic Ash laminate flooring. The lounge provides a beautiful nature outlook and a cosy free-standing wood fire. A carefully appointed kitchen features a Tasmanian oak island bench, soft-close cabinetry, 40mm stone benchtops and quality appliances, including a 90cm Smeg oven and cooktop and integrated Miele dishwasher. There is ample kitchen bench and storage space, including large pantry.

Privately positioned in its own wing, a generous master suite features its own VJ-panelled vaulted ceiling, walk-in robe, and ensuite with the added luxury of under-floor heating. The third wing contains the main bathroom and three bedrooms, providing excellent flexibility for children, guests and/or home offices and the option of second living area in the generously sized fourth bedroom with direct access to the garden. These three bedrooms are fitted with quality wool carpets and built in robes. A large double garage has handy separate storage room and direct access to the home via the laundry. Fixed-wireless NBN provides high speed internet.

A fully undercover alfresco features a stunning hardwood open panelled roof design. This is finished with a UV-protectant covering that captures the light while providing a sheltered space to relax and gather. The garden has been thoughtfully designed to be both beautiful and easy to maintain, with established lawns, deciduous trees, seasonal flowers, and nine established garden beds. A rear shed (8m x 4m) with power and water offers valuable additional space for a home gym, studio, workshop or creative pursuits.

This home is designed to deliver genuine energy efficiency and lower running costs without compromising on comfort, style or liveability. With its combination of considered architecture, quality finishes, attuned sustainability, low-maintenance garden and easy indoor-outdoor living, 16 Lowe Street is a home that feels both contemporary and wonderfully connected to its setting. All of this comes with the quiet village charm of Tylden, while Woodend, Kyneton and Trentham are all within easy reach (10 mins drive), and Melbourne and the airport also conveniently accessible. A beautifully considered home, thoughtfully designed for modern country living.

16 Lowe St Tylden was the proud winner of the Regional Building Awards 2021 and a Finalist in the HIA Western Victorian Awards 2020. This home has been featured in Dream Homes Australia (9 Network), and a number of magazines including Grand Designs Australia, and Australian Country Homes.
