Maximising the views of Swillbrook Lake Nature Reserve with floor-to-ceiling windows, this family home is all about the surrounding landscape. As evidence, huge doors open unto a balcony and a spiral staircase leads up to the deck, where the outdoor seating area becomes a great vantage point. Even the freestanding tub in the main bedroom is positioned right next to the window for a relaxing soak with a beautiful backdrop. And if relaxing is what you're in the market for, the on-site spa might be able to assist. You'll also find a shared swimming pool here, where the little ones can burn off excess energy.
