Timeless Cottesloe Beach House

The timeless aesthetic of this modern, architecturally designed beach house set amongst Cottesloe’s iconic Norfolk pines is perfect coastal luxury. Neutral earthy tones of the Aspen-stone fireplace, bleached textured oak, shiplap paneling and bespoke engineered stoneware complement a gold-standard in passive solar design.

Engineered oak floors, sky-high raked ceilings and custom-made barn-style doors continue throughout the fluid floorplan of this elevated property which sits upon a generous corner allotment with a sunny northern aspect and just steps to the beach.
From the entrance, a lofty double-width hallway leads the eye to rear sun-drenched living. Here, glimpses of rugged Aspen-stone from a double-sided ceiling-height fireplace are offset by a wall of glass framing poolside views.

The luxury master suite, featuring a hexagonal raked timber ceiling, is the epitome of beach-house chic. A grand dressing room, appointed in La Trobe ceiling-height engineered oak cabinetry, abundant built-in drawers and loads of shelving, make for a blissfully uncluttered environment.

White Truffle stoneware, independent double vanities and a double, walk-in shower complement a free-standing egg tub and one of many Villeroy & Boch washdown toilets.

Joining the entrance, a light-filled study/sitting room/potential fourth bedroom features built-in oak furniture & shelving, while a generous cloak/mud room is the perfect place to stow-away a family’s worth of shoes, coats, school bags and accessories for the pooch.

The open-plan living, kitchen and dining, with dramatic raked ceilings, solid timber beams and charming boat-house-style paneling, is a truly magical zone for relaxing and entertaining. Stacker doors fold away to bring the outdoors in, while the owner’s love of cooking and social gatherings is reflected in the stunning kitchen design.

Distinguished by its earthy marbled grain, an expanse of engineered Calcutta Gold stoneware furnishes generous countertops and a spectacular 6m x 1.5m custom-made island bench – inclusive of a Chambord ceramic sink.

Miele appliances, including two self-cleaning ovens, induction stove & down draft extractor, an integrated fridge/freezer, walk-in scullery, loads of snowy white cabinetry and a Vintec multi-zoned wine fridge complete the zone, while a discreet letterbox window overlooking the street, in addition to a concertina window to the deck encourages refreshing sea breezes to filter through the home.

A continuation of composite decking frames a sunny north/western aspect and provides the ideal setting for a morning cuppa and yoga or sunset drinks and place to fire up the barbie, while below deck, a solar heated saltwater swimming pool, laser-cut wall art, sunken fire-pit, outdoor shower and screen-protected cabana meld seamlessly into the landscape to create a sublime outdoor living zone.

Occupying a private wing of their own, two secondary bedrooms, each with wall-width built-in robes and ensuite bathrooms, all adopt the home’s neutral style aesthetic and share a generous powder-room.

A below ground eight-car capacity garage with epoxy flooring, fully integrated plumbing and a workshop has endless potential to evolve: add a man-cave, a teenager’s retreat, or hobby room…along with storage allowances for bulkier items.

Central to endless cafes, beach bars & hotels, several supermarket options, and the local primary school just up the road, this alluring coastal retreat is one of Cottesloe’s most admired family residences; exceptional security and a surprisingly low maintenance, it presents ideal lock-and-leave qualities without compromise on space or luxury.
