Scotchman’s View Farmhouse is a contemporary take on rural living, situated in Victoria’s Bellarine Peninsula. What initially began as a renovation dream evolved into a thoughtfully designed home demonstrating true craftsmanship and Australian-made materials.

Challenged by a poorly positioned original structure, termite damage, and the need to protect a 100-year-old magnolia tree, this project required a bold reimagining. The solution was a strategic relocation to the property’s centre, maximising exposure to the northern light while protecting occupants from strong south-westerly winds.

Designed for multi-generational living, the home strikes a balance between privacy and connection. The eastern wing offers a parents’ retreat while the central living area draws the family together. The living space is bathed in natural light and features breathtaking views thanks to the Series 704FBR SlideMASTERTM Sliding Door.

To enhance efficiency and comfort, PAG integrated Series 726 ThermalHEARTTM Double Hung Windows, combined with Series 450 Wide Gap Double Glazed CentreGLAZETM .

This high-performance partnership ensures optimal U-Value and SHGC ratings, delivering superior insulation through thermally broken frames and soft-coat Low-E double glazing without compromising on aesthetics, light transmittance, comfort and durability.

Scotchman’s View Farmhouse is an exemplary model of sustainable and innovative design and a magnificent place to call home.
