8 Musgrove Crescent, Boya WA 6056

Architects' Own

Created as their own family's sanctuary by two architects, this is a home conceived with an uncommon clarity of vision - where considered design, craftsmanship, and imagination converge in a celebration of natural and reclaimed materials.

Hidden on a 1,756sqm nature block punctuated by granite outcrops and framed by established treetops, the architecture is deliberately immersed in its setting. Vast banks of glass draw in the northern aspect of Boya Quarry, and capture shifting patterns of dappled natural light from East to West as the sun rises and sets. Here, landscape, light, and architecture are inseparable - each shaping the experience of the home as the hours and seasons unfold.

Original, warm and utterly unique, this is architecture made to be lived in.

INSIDE
• Portico with musical doorbells opening into a generous dining area encased in glass and opening onto the deck, warmed by a vintage wood-burning stove
• Long kitchen with raw-edge timber benchtops, double sink, gas hob, new convection oven, microwave, and dishwasher, a timber breakfast bar overlooking the gardens, and bifold doors opening to the pergola

• Downstairs king-sized bedroom with built-in robe and dual-aspect windows over the rear garden, served by a versatile ensuite/laundry with over-bath shower, natural-edge vanities, w/c, full laundry amenities, and external access
• Extensive use of reclaimed and natural materials throughout; jewel-like vintage Parisian coloured glass, reclaimed timber beams (from jetties and main roads bridges), and jarrah floorboards, windows, and doorframes
• Soaring ceilings, multi-purpose spaces, natural flow, textured finishes, and geometric windows throughout; celebrating the home's architectural pedigree
