11 Dawson Drive

Thoughtfully designed and built by Leigh Herbel and Peter Wall, this substantial multi-level residence offers an exceptional combination of space, flexibility, functionality & clever design that is rarely found in one home.
Created around three distinct levels, the home provides excellent separation between living, sleeping, working & entertaining spaces while maintaining a wonderful sense of connection throughout.
The lower level immediately sets the property apart. A generous double garage with an extensive workbench provides plenty of room for two vehicles, tools & hobbies, while internal access leads to a substantial cellar/storage area. The dedicated study/fifth bedroom is particularly impressive, featuring acoustic insulation, a solid lockable door & its own walk-in robe. With Rockwool insulation incorporated into the walls, it provides a quiet and private environment for working from home, important calls & study.
The study also forms the central hub of the home’s CAT6 network, connecting key living areas for fast and convenient streaming and digital connectivity. Importantly, the adjoining powder room includes a shower and has been cleverly designed with future flexibility in mind. The wall between the study and powder room has already been framed to accommodate an additional doorway, providing the opportunity to transform the study into a second master suite with its own ensuite.
Moving upstairs, the master retreat provides a wonderful sense of privacy. The oversized bedroom features a dedicated inset for displaying a favourite artwork, while the large ensuite includes a double shower and recessed shelving. The walk-in robe also provides access to a fully floored attic storage area, offering valuable additional storage and easy access to the home’s heating and cooling equipment.
A spacious lounge sits alongside the master suite and features an impressive high raked ceiling with electrically operated high-level windows. Open them on warm days & hot air can escape naturally, creating an effective passive cooling advantage. From here, the long internal railing provides an elevated outlook over the magnificent living area below.
The main living level is undoubtedly the heart of the home. Positioned north-facing, the expansive open-plan living area combines a generous kitchen, dining space, sitting area & central landing beneath a spectacular raked ceiling. Winter sunlight floods the space, while the substantial eaves help control summer sun.
The kitchen provides excellent storage, plumbing for a refrigerator, an induction cooktop & convenient temperature-controlled hot water. A separate family room can be closed off from the main living zone via substantial double doors, allowing the home to effortlessly transition between open family living and quieter, more private spaces.
Three further oversized bedrooms are located on this level, each with built-in robes and ample room for beds, desks & additional furniture. The large family bathroom continues the home’s focus on thoughtful functionality, while the spacious laundry provides exceptional storage, a dedicated refrigerator space, hanging provision for a dryer & plumbing for the washing machine.
Outside, the home continues to impress.
Large double sliding doors connect the main living area directly to an expansive alfresco entertaining zone, complete with a plumbed-in BBQ, wok burner & teppanyaki plate. Beyond this is a generous deck, polished concrete basketball area, fire-pit entertaining space, cubby house, lawn area for family games & established vegetable gardens.
The established gardens have been designed to be both attractive and relatively low maintenance, while a 9,000-litre water tank and 6.9kW solar system add practical value and help reduce ongoing household costs.
Additional features include ducted heating, ducted evaporative cooling, ducted vacuuming & a split system in the study.
Positioned in a quiet, dead-end street with minimal passing traffic and surrounded by other young families, this is a home designed for family life. It offers the space to grow, the flexibility to adapt, outstanding entertaining facilities & an impressive level of infrastructure rarely found in a residential property.
More than simply a large family home, this is a carefully considered residence where the details have been designed to make everyday life easier, more comfortable & more enjoyable.
