THE GREAT ESCAPE.

A Sydney neurosurgeon and his family purchased a country farmhouse on the NSW Central Coast for weekend getaways. The home underwent a two-year renovation by Megan Brown of Penman Brown Interior Design, transforming it into a French-inspired 'generational' farmhouse with a modern aesthetic. The design features imported French limestone, European oak flooring, and a mix of textures and fabrics, creating a timeless retreat that harmonizes with the natural surroundings. Light fixtures from international and local designers add a statement to each space, resulting in a home that embraces its bush surrounds while exuding a classic French farmhouse feel.
