Wide House Designs
At Eden Brae Homes, we believe in creating wide frontage house designs that mix style, functionality, and comfort for modern Australian families.
Building a wide home is a fantastic way to make the most of a larger block of land. They combine style and functionality, giving you more living space. These designs maximise the front of the house, creating homes that stand out with beautiful façades, big windows, and great architectural features.
Wide home plans are ideal for those who want spacious layouts that support modern, open-plan living. By spreading the design out, these homes create smooth connections between living, dining, and outdoor areas, perfect for hosting friends or enjoying time with family. They also allow for extra features like bigger bedrooms, more living areas, or dedicated spaces such as home offices, media rooms, or gyms.
One major benefit of wide designs is their flexibility to suit your lifestyle. Your family can enjoy various living areas that offer privacy and versatility, while outdoor spaces like alfresco areas or gardens become a key focus. Wide designs easily incorporate eco-friendly features like maximising natural light and energy-efficient layouts.
Perfect for larger blocks or anyone wanting more space, our wide house designs make the most of your block to create the ultimate in home liveability.
