Number Forty-Five

Southern Highlands Custom Home

Recycled brick gives this Southern Highlands home its quiet strength.

Rich in texture, variation and history, each brick brings a depth that cannot be replicated by modern materials. Set beneath crisp white eaves and a clean roofline, the home balances traditional craftsmanship with a refined contemporary finish.

Every detail has been considered, from the rhythm of the brickwork to the way the home sits within its rural setting. The result is a residence with warmth, permanence and character, designed to feel established from the moment it is complete.

Project No. 45 reflects the CETA Projects approach: personalised design, precise construction and premium craftsmanship delivered with transparency and care.

A home built with character

This project celebrates the beauty of enduring materials and considered execution. Recycled brick was selected not only for its appearance, but for the story it brings to the home. Each course adds texture, shadow and individuality, creating a façade that feels timeless rather than new.

Against the Southern Highlands backdrop, the material palette feels grounded, honest and built to last.

Craftsmanship in every course

From concept through to completion, the focus was on creating a home that feels both refined and lived-in. Clean architectural lines, detailed brickwork and a restrained exterior palette allow the craftsmanship to lead.

This is the kind of build that does not chase trends. It is designed to mature beautifully and stand with confidence for generations.
