**All Offers Presented 12pm Tuesday 29 October 2024 (unless sold prior).**
Set at the crest of a hill with the crystalline waters of Grant Street Beach & Marine Park Playground just below, this architect-designed modern beach house is an exhilarating blend of infinite glass & natural light, sublime coastal aesthetics & state-of-the-art appointments, where indoor and outdoor living coexist around succulent gardens, poolside views, and sun- lit courtyards.
Designed by Cottesloe-based Sharp & Van Rhyn Architects, and landscaped with coastal- loving plants by Jo Taylor every exacting detail has been considered in this north-facing home which presents a breathtaking interior floorplan behind a demure glass-clad exterior.
A central alfresco lounge flanked by walls of glass bi-fold doors features an open wood fire and overlooks lush gardens to a glass-mosaic tiled solar-heated swimming pool which anchors the home from which the open-plan kitchen, dining and rear sweeping corridor extends to a sun-filled living room.
A hot and cold outdoor shower is conveniently located via side gate access to the front of the home, to rinse off after a day at the beach.
Similarly, on the upper floor two of the generous bedrooms share ethereal light from this central void, which is protected from weather by a double-height steel-framed canopy with clear polycarbonate roofing to facilitate natural sunlight.
A grand pivot door from the entrance foyer opens to charcoal slate-tiled feature wall and a floor to ceiling picture window which showcases a lush bamboo-fringed courtyard . On entry a sea of honed grey Spanish stone flooring is complemented by the earthy driftwood hues in the textured timber-veneer cabinetry.
The designer kitchen, framed by a white stone cantilevered breakfast bar and accented with a soft earth-coloured marble up-stand is appointed in quality Gaggenau cookware, including a 200 series double wall oven & steam oven combo, induction stove top, wok burner, and steamer. Integrated into the cabinetry is a twin Leibherr fridge/freezer with a built-in ice maker, and a Siemens dishwasher.
Discreetly behind, a butler's pantry features a dumb waiter (servicing the below-ground garage), Bosch dishwasher, Vintec wine fridge, plenty of storage as well as built-in desk / office area which overlooks the serene courtyard and pool.
Partially hidden from view, an inviting lounge room is a tranquil oasis of northern light cocooned in the gentle harmony of gently flowing water. Generous sliding doors extend to a sun-dappled courtyard evoking pure Zen-like appeal where a bespoke waterfall connects to a pond teeming with healthy koi and goldfish.
Extending from the main central courtyard, the rear sun filled living room appears to be suspended over the swimming pool . Fitted with remote blockout blinds, wall mounted smart TV and handy kitchenette with access to a spa-inspired bathroom with a rain shower it makes for the perfect entertainment zone,.
Outside honed concrete paving draws the eye past the pool to a serene rear sunken garden, perfect for meditation, yoga, or escaping the world with a good book.
Plush open loop natural wool carpet furnishes the upper floor where a heavenly master suite occupies a vast area overlooking the treetops from a glorious balcony vista.
A huge custom walk-in robe, cascading natural linen (block-out) drapes, and a spa-inspired double vanity ensuite includes a marble-mounted designer tub with a waterfall spout, discreet treetops views, and heated towel rails. Adjacent is a generous study fitted with custom timber furniture and a kitchenette.
At the northern end, three oversized secondary bedrooms have built-in robes and share a sunny north-facing teenager's retreat with ocean glimpses from the balcony and a spacious workstation for homework or creative pursuits. At lower ground level, behind discreet doors with keypad entry is a 1,500-bottle capacity climate-controlled wine cellar as well as a band-sized sound-proofed music room, accessed off the huge automatic double garage well equipped with permanent shelving and keypad entry to the main house.
Other key features include C-Bus lighting, Sonos integrated Polk outdoor speakers, ducted vacuum & zoned reverse-cycle air-conditioning, LED downlighting, Genie Systems video doorbell, laundry chute, and aluminum framed commercial-grade windows.
