Set on a tranquil, tree-lined street in the highly sought after area of Nedlands, this architecturally designed masterpiece by Lance Jones is a true celebration of timeless elegance and thoughtful craftsmanship. Built in 1982 and featured in Homes & Living magazine in 1986, it embodies all the hallmarks of the era's bold and innovative approach to architecture. Open plan living, a domed glass roof over a mezzanine walkway, curved glass double storey windows and an abundance of natural light are only some of the statement features of this home, making you feel like you have stepped into a time capsule of style and design that effortlessly blends retro charm with modern living.
The true hero of the home would have to be the open plan living and dining areas. The term "let there be light" is a perfect description for this living space with soaring ceilings, light filled voids and floor to ceiling double storey windows. Designed as open plan, yet cleverly creating more intimate spaces within this design, allows so much flexibility in how you can live. The design brief was to create a lovely connectivity with indoor/outdoor living. This has been beautifully achieved, with lush greenery seen from all aspects of the home.
Upstairs is a continuation of architectural flair. A mezzanine walkway with a domed glass roof connects the master bedroom and balcony with two additional bedrooms and family bathroom.
The master bedroom features the signature curved glass windows as seen in the lower level, giving a beautiful tree lined vista.
Surrounding the home are beautifully lush gardens and offer a choice of 2 separate outdoor living spaces, perfect for outdoor entertaining and plenty of space for the kids to run and play.
Additional features include:
• Ground floor fourth bedroom/study
• Downstairs secondary bathroom and laundry
• Double lock up garage
You will love the vibrant lifestyle that this location has to offer. Only minutes away from the Claremont hub and local shops, cafes and restaurants. Easy access to public transport and close to a fabulous choice of schools.
Perfectly positioned high on the hill and set on a 696m² block, this home is a rare find. This iconic 1980s home is full of style and possibilities.
