Entertaining is a real pleasure when you
have all the prerequisites – a spacious,
inviting home that opens out to a large
alfresco living area complete with
pool, entertainment pavilion and lush,
subtropical landscaping.
This family home, which was designed
by Don Nelson Architecture, is exactly
such an entertainers’ paradise. Although
the architecture reflects a strong European
influence, the interior has a very contemporary open-plan layout that lends itself
to formal and informal entertaining.
