Architect’s own award-winning courtyard house on the market for the first time
Architect Guy Tarrant built this home for his family in 2017. It became an award winner.

Light is very important in this home.
Inside, the home is relaxing, and welcoming.
All the rooms in the house look onto the central courtyard and the swimming pool.
The home wraps around the site, and pushes into a tricky corner, maximizing space left for the courtyard.
A curved wall in the corner of the dining room, takes in the shape of the site.
The gardens are mostly outside, a gift to passers-by that softens the brick.
Friends tell Millar the home has a resort feel.
