A brand new show home in your hood
It’s a show home with wow, and well worth a look!. The new Madison Park Homes show home at 126 Colonial Drive, Millwater stands out from the crowd with its innovative new design, mono pitch styling and contrasting claddings of natural timber and stone.
The home is a showcase of the quality build principles Madison Park is becoming known for. Everywhere you look there are quality fixtures and fittings chosen from carefully selected suppliers. The home gives you a tremendous sense of space and lightness due to the clever use of large windows, high ceilings and oversize doors.
“Our philosophy is based on offering a range of inspiring home designs to encourage clients to think outside the ordinary”, says Ron Saxby, Madison Park New Home Consultant. “We hope our new show home will inspire visitors as they develop ideas, plans and specification for their own new home”.
We love giving advice and guidance. Come and see us at our new show home. Open 12 - 4pm, Tuesday - Sunday or take a virtual tour
