Steffan Harries are thrilled to have been onboard to gain approval for Jonny and Hannah's Dream Home in Coorparoo!

The Coorparoo Dream Home, featured in Home Beautiful, showcases a stunning transformation inspired by Palm Springs vibes. This project was a collaborative effort, with teams on Channel 7 bringing their unique visions to life.

Highlights include a sophisticated kitchen with a feature arch and pink tiles, a hidden butler's pantry, and an elegant dining room.

The meticulous attention to detail in every room has truly paid off, resulting in a home that exudes charisma and charm.
