The Resort on Watkins
The Zorzi tradition of crafting some of Australia's finest homes is evident throughout this site. Whilst "high end" materials by themselves add to the feel of a quality home, true quality is the combination of beautiful materials and skilled craftsmanship. When these elements of material and discipline are combined, as in a Zorzi Builders home, the results are outstanding.
Although "outstanding" sounds like advertising speak, the reality is that this home was judged by our peers in 2008 to become HIA Perth Home of the Year; HIA WA Home of the Year, HIA WA Custom Built Home of the Year; HIA WA Custom Built Home $1.5 million & Over; HIA WA Outdoor Project of the Year. Our cabinet makers also submitted their craftsmanship for evaluation, by industry judging. The results were; Winner 2008 HIA WA Kitchen & Bathroom Awards - New Bathroom Project $20,001 - $30,000; Winner 2008 HIA WA Kitchen & Bathroom Awards - Best Alfresco Cooking Project; Winner 2008 HIA WA Kitchen & Bathroom Awards - Most Innovative Use of Laminate.
In March 2009 the MBA awarded the home; Winner Display Homes over $1,000,000; Overall Winner Best Display Home 2009; and the workmanship was acknowledged with an award for, Excellence in Floor and Wall Tiling.
And in July 2009, the home was further recognised nationally by the HIA for the outdoors with Australian Outdoor Project of the Year 2009. A fitting accoloade for a home that has been called "The Resort on Watkins".
