you step into the gracious foyer with the living
room, dining area, and second living space
straight ahead, running the length of the home.
The entertainer’s kitchen with walk-in
pantry serves all these spaces as well as the out-
door entertaining area. The latter is accessed
by double doors off the living spaces and has a
large portico, making it ideal for year-round use.
The master suite is at the front of the home,
to the right, with the double garage, most other
bedrooms and the main bathroom to the left.
“Everything in the Rata is organised to opti-
mise social connections but to provide a sense of
separation if required,” says Clarke.”However,
it’s also the little touches that make this home
so enjoyable to live in – the sleek kitchen splash-
back, the cute rear porch, two built-in gas fires
in the living areas, the walk-in master wardrobe
and the schist portico columns. Plus, the Rata’s
warm year-round due to above-code insulation.”
