Western Australia’s breathtaking landscapes – from rolling hills to vast bushland and coastal expanses – provide the perfect backdrop for a dream rural home. At The Rural Building Co., we specialise in crafting homes that not only complement but also embrace the natural beauty of their surroundings. Our farmhouse designs are thoughtfully created to bring the outdoors in, using local, natural materials and expansive windows to frame panoramic views.
Embracing the outdoors in rural home designs
A well-designed country house blends seamlessly with the environment. Our rural home designs integrate wraparound verandahs, large sliding doors, and extensive outdoor living areas to ensure nature is always within reach. From rustic bush poles to timber beams and recycled brick, every material we use is carefully chosen to reflect and enhance Western Australia’s unique landscape.
The Darlington: a traditional farmhouse reimagined
Taking inspiration from its namesake town in Western Australia, The Darlington is a true reflection of the traditional farmhouse, designed for modern living. Its timeless façade features expansive wraparound verandahs that invite you to relax and take in the scenery, no matter the season.
Step inside, and you’ll immediately notice the breathtaking ceiling heights and the seamless indoor-outdoor connection facilitated by double sliding doors leading to the decked alfresco.
Designed with practicality in mind, the kitchen boasts a concealed yet highly functional scullery, ensuring that entertaining and everyday living are effortless.
The Twin View: a panorama from every angle
Why settle for one stunning outlook when you can have two? The Twin View is designed to maximise every aspect of its surroundings, with strategically placed windows and an angled floorplan that ensures breathtaking views from multiple vantage points.
In true Australiana style, this home features bush poles, weatherboards, and extensive outdoor living areas that exude timeless charm. The kitchen and scullery serve as the heart of the home, seamlessly connected to both indoor and outdoor spaces.
Whether you’re enjoying a relaxing bath with a view, unwinding in one of the two generous living areas, or hosting a summer gathering with the doors thrown open to let in the breeze, The Twin View is built for those who appreciate nature’s beauty at every turn.
The Hinterland Retreat: a rural hideaway with modern comforts
If you’re dreaming of a country escape that blends rustic character with modern luxury, The Hinterland Retreat is your perfect match. With its mix of recycled brick, weatherboards, render, and sturdy bush poles, this home settles effortlessly into its rural setting while offering every contemporary comfort.
The heart of the home is the expansive country kitchen, which opens to an oversized alfresco, perfect for entertaining or simply soaking in the scenery.
Whether you’re curled up by the fire in winter or hosting a barbecue on a balmy summer night, The Hinterland Retreat offers a sanctuary for those seeking both beauty and functionality.
