Contemporary Australian Beach House With Stunning Ocean Views
Luxury Coastal Living in City Beach -
Nestled quietly into the hillside in an elevated corner position with commanding views over South City Beach and the Indian Ocean, a magnificent architecturally designed contemporary Australian beach house residence perfectly suited to City Beach.
This masterpiece of restrained architecture is a magnificent example of modernist principles. It is defined by clean, considered lines, multiple light filled living spaces, simple materials and a true connection to the outdoors.
Beautifully integrated within its landscape; natural elements, colours and textures harmonise the connection between indoors and outdoors, whilst continuity of materials acts as a beautifully pared back backdrop highlighting openness, function and organic architectural form. Topped by a flat roof, the warm timber cladding strikes a stunning contrast against white walls, dark grey window frames and layers of luxuriant foliage across both levels.
Characterised by generous proportions, sun drenched interiors and supreme family appeal, a versatile and intuitive floor plan is designed for flexible functionality and inspired separation of space, a perfect balance for relaxed family living and entertaining.
At ground level, bedrooms are separated by a long hallway; to one end, a heavenly master suite with striking oak feature wall and sliding doors to a private balcony in the treetops, vast walk in dressing room and huge en-suite with freestanding bath and walk in double shower. There's a study/office space with two walk in storerooms, generous guest bedroom and bathroom, powder room, a large practical fully fitted laundry and stair access to under croft garaging.
At the opposite end, two generous bedrooms with large walk in robes share a dual access en-suite. The huge second living room/teenage retreat opens to glorious private formal gardens; sun drenched terraces, timber decking leading to rolling lawns with landscaped borders over two levels, an outdoor shower and a pristine pool with sunbathing terrace. Tucked away at the rear of the gardens are vegetable/herb beds and a shed.
A beautiful concrete floating staircase flanked by huge panes of glass rises upwards to vast open plan living and entertaining areas across the upper level. Perfectly zoned and integrated, vast expanses of glass and soaring ceilings cascade natural light inwards, emphasising seamless connections to spectacular outdoor spaces. Opening from family living areas, a magnificent balcony with lounging and dining areas centred around an ethanol fireplace, allowing year round entertaining with breathtaking Indian Ocean views as the spectacular backdrop. A wraparound walkway leads to a well-equipped BBQ kitchen and alfresco dining area with easy access to the main kitchen.
The sleek superbly appointed kitchen features a long white Corian island with white cabinetry and casual seating. Dark stone counters and cabinetry add warmth and texture; whilst a stunning glass splash back offers a window to the world. A large scullery adjoins and has fitted cabinetry, Corian counters, open shelving, double sink and a very useful dumb waiter lift system from the lower ground level garage.
There's an under croft double garage with extensive under house storage and hardstand for boat or trailer.
Within easy reach of Empire Village, Wembley Golf Course, Bold Park Pool, City Beach Oval, City Beach Primary and The International School of WA.
This home is a bespoke family home created by the owners and architect and is a one off design, once sold it will be impossible to find a similar home along the coast in WA.
