Federation home pops with modern colours
When it comes to the architectural features of a home, “Using a crisp white such as Greyology 1 accentuates the features of the home while keeping the palette simple. Alternative colours to consider are Wood Grey for the weatherboards and Modesty White for the trims and features,” said Wendy.
Kooringal Homestead, Hawkesdale (273km W of Melbourne), is an attractive weatherboard Edwardian house in Federation style. Single-storey and asymmetrical, it has exposed rafters and a high, steep hipped roof clad in corrugated metal. A return verandah beneath the house's unbroken roofline features paired, square timber posts with unusual post capitals. The very tall and slim brick chimneys have interesting corbelling. Kooringal has been owned by the Dawson family for 82 years.
