This beautiful, 5-year-old Harkaway Federation-style home offers a different story. It captures all the warmth, romance, and soul of a classic heritage estate, but wraps it in the effortless comfort, quiet energy efficiency, and ease of a modern build. Here, the hard work is entirely done; all that is left is to live.
