Display home looks more like a mansion

- ALEISHA DAWSON

GONE are the days when display homes consist of a basic floorplan and three bedrooms.

Metricon Homes’ latest design, at Sorrento, is more mansion-like than house with luxury fittings and fixtures, a pool, theatre, wet bar and two wine fridges among its inclusions.

Metricon’s Queensland general manager Peter Ryan said The Riviera 65 showed what could be achieved with a knockdown and rebuild rather than renovating.

“With the Gold Coast having a shortage of prime vacant land, it makes sense to rebuild the home of your dreams,” he said.

The interior of the home features an open-plan kitchen with a butler’s pantry and the dining room has its own wet bar with two wine fridges.

The indoor living area opens up with bi-fold doors to an outdoor entertaini­ng area that overlooks a pool, gazebo and waterfront.

Upstairs there are four bedrooms and a theatre room.

Metricon design director Adrian Popple said the bespoke design was all about luxury living, yet also provided a relaxing space to live and entertain.
