Because the house has a carport, rather than
a garage, there was a need for sheltered outdoor
storage. Bravo built secret doors into the Palliside cladding at the front of the house. A flush

manufacturer of Palliside, says the home is notable for the especially high standard of finish.
“Bravo’s painstaking attention to detail has
ensured this project raises the benchmark for a
family home in every possible way.”
