The Project

Rural architecture shaped by landscape, material, and restraint.

Montara is named for the mountain. The landscape came first, and the architecture followed.

Set across 60 acres of bushland in Woodford, this is a design that holds its own within an extraordinary natural setting without competing with it. A reinterpretation of the rural farm shed through a refined architectural lens. Clean lines, honest materials, a built form that settles into the land rather than imposing upon it.

Every material was specified with the site in mind. Durability, performance, and an honest relationship with the surrounding environment were non-negotiable from the outset.

Montara is currently under construction.

Design intent

A rural home shaped by land, outlook and the scale of its Woodford setting.

Material direction

Honest materials and clean forms allow the architecture to sit quietly within the landscape.

Built with care

Every decision was made with the site in mind, from durability to how the home settles into its surrounds.

THE WORK BEHIND THE WORK

What you don’t see in the photos.

The finished home is only the visible part of the build. Behind every Nella project is a series of decisions about the site, the structure, the materials and the way the home will actually be lived in.

Not a template. Not a package.

Every Nella home is shaped around the client, the block and the way the home needs to be lived in. You are not locked into a fixed set of selections, finishes or materials. The result is still yours, guided by a builder who knows how to make each decision work.

Decisions made with guidance.

Building should not mean being rushed into choices you do not understand. Trent works through the details with you early, from layout and materials to the way each finish comes together, so every decision is considered before it becomes a problem on site.

The standard continues after handover.

A Nella build does not end when the keys are handed over. The same care that shapes the home during construction continues into the final checks, handover and aftercare, so the standard is protected long after move-in day.
