Set in the heart of the picturesque Huntingdale Estate in Berry, on Dharawal Land, Parker Crescent is a masterpiece of design and craftsmanship. This custom home, brought to life by interior designer Amie Brennan, Craig Johnson’s building design and the skilled team at Digger Brothers, combines contemporary country charm with Hamptons-inspired luxury, creating a space that is as functional as it is visually stunning.
The residence’s unique block presented challenges, but Johnson’s thoughtful approach turned those into opportunities. The resulting design captures the breathtaking Berry Mountain views while presenting a striking façade that seamlessly integrates with the surrounding streetscape. As you step through the soft pink rustic doors, those sweeping mountain vistas become an immediate highlight, setting the tone for the entire home.
Interior Elegance
Inside, the interiors reflect the bold yet sophisticated vision of Amie Brennan. Known for her ability to create spaces that exude personality and charm, Brennan worked closely with the homeowners to deliver an interior palette of stylish colors and striking finishes. The result is a home that marries functionality with timeless beauty.
Open-plan living spaces with floor-to-ceiling windows make the residence an entertainer’s dream. Every corner of the home has been designed to maximise natural light and highlight the seamless connection between indoors and out. Despite facing challenges from extreme weather events over the past year, Digger Brothers rose to the occasion, ensuring the project was completed on time and without delays, cementing their reputation as one of Berry’s most trusted builders.
A Moody Retreat
Among the standout features of this residence is its powder room, a space transformed by Brennan’s creative vision. With no natural light to work with, Brennan embraced a moody aesthetic that enhances the room’s intimacy and sophistication.
“I wanted to create an interesting space considering the powder room had no windows. I really wanted to make it moody,” Brennan shared. “The Herbert was great and leaned into the moody blue tones, working beautifully with the Brodware tapware in nickel.”
The Herbert Basin from Nood Co, wall-mounted in Powder Blue, takes centre stage, offering an elegant contrast to the room’s dark walls and detailed skirting. Earthy subway tiles on the floor add texture, while brushed nickel tapware by Brodware enhances the space with a timeless finish. A carefully chosen sconce casts a warm, inviting glow, rounding out the design and making the powder room a true sanctuary within the home.
A Home to Be Treasured
Parker Crescent is a home that embodies the collaborative brilliance of its creators. The thoughtful building design by Craig Johnson, the bold interiors by Amie Brennan, and the meticulous craftsmanship of Digger Brothers have resulted in a residence that is both distinctive and inviting.
This custom home strikes the perfect balance of rustic country charm and Hamptons luxury, offering its owners not just a place to live but a sanctuary to create lasting memories. In every detail, this Berry gem stands as a testament to what’s possible when vision and craftsmanship come together.
Parker’s recognition as a 2023 HIA Custom Build Finalist is a testament to the thoughtful collaboration and craftsmanship that brought this stunning home to life.
