LUXURIOUS COTTESLOE BEACH HOUSE

TWILIGHT HOME OPEN <br/>5:30-6:00PM WEDNESDAY 27TH MARCH <br/><br/>Own one of the most beautifully designed architectural houses in Cottesloe with this spectacular postmodernist beach home, offering indoor-outdoor coastal living at its finest. <br/><br/>Designed by renowned architectural firm Donaldson + Warn, this exquisite house was built in 1988 - but you would be forgiven for thinking it was completed yesterday. Immaculately presented and showcasing a futuristic design that was miles ahead of the curve, this house epitomises the meaning of ageing gracefully; so thoughtful and timeless is its floorplan and build quality. The house was even selected as the Cottesloe representative for an architecture coffee table book on beach houses.<br/><br/>Meticulously and thoughtfully renovated throughout, this is a breathtakingly beautiful property finished to the highest standards. A gracious elevation is complemented by lush landscaped gardens, original wrought iron gates and mature trees that enhance the tranquil, calm feel on this 655sqm block. <br/><br/>The interiors are elegant yet casual, warm and welcoming. Step inside to a breathtaking home with capacious, free-flowing living spaces, soaring ceiling voids, beautiful natural light and a garden connection at every turn. <br/><br/>This is a home designed for indoor-outdoor living and effortless entertaining. Relax with a cocktail in the ultra-private saltwater pool beneath the frangipani tree. Cook up a storm in the designer kitchen while friends relax at the breakfast bar. Invite family for long table dinners on the patio.<br/><br/>A central corridor stretches from the front door to the back of the home, with living and work spaces at the front, bedrooms at the back and staircases to each end. The architects designed the house around a central courtyard with a roof designed to capture and pull cooling sea breezes through the home. <br/><br/>The stunning kitchen features marble benchtops, olive green fluted panelling and oak cabinetry with Italian La Germania range, Vintec wine fridge, integrated Miele dishwasher and walk-in pantry offering wine storage. <br/><br/>The design brief given to the architects requested interior spaces that would be perfect for showcasing an extensive private art collection. To achieve this, the considered layout offers beautiful moments to pause and reflect to admire artworks through the home, while the double-height voids capture north and southern natural light. <br/><br/>The ground floor has a huge open-plan informal living and dining that flows out onto the central patio, while alongside the kitchen is a sitting room with raking ceilings. Walnut-hued Tasmanian oak floors run throughout the home.<br/><br/>The spacious upstairs main suite is a true retreat, with private staircase, raking ceilings and sweeping neighbourhood views. A huge bespoke dressing room gives way to a hotel-like ensuite, tiled in travertine with marble to the twin vanity and to the shaving ledge in the spacious shower. <br/><br/>A mezzanine walkway with louvered windows is a beautiful connection from the main suite to the front upstairs living, offering lovely vantage points throughout the interiors. Peaceful and open, the upper floor living has a private balcony and is ideal as a study or home office. <br/><br/>A luxurious family bathroom with freestanding bath services the two private ground floor bedrooms. One bedroom spills out onto the central patio, the other overlooks the pool and back garden. There is a beautifully appointed laundry with Miele appliances.<br/><br/>A generous carport has space for three cars. A back garden lawn separates the house from a private studio, currently a gym, with outdoor shower nearby for pool users.<br/><br/>If you appreciate beautiful architecture and dream of a modern coastal home where there is nothing left to do except move in and relax, this idyllic, unique home could be the one.<br/><br/>Please contact joint listing agents Tom Loh on: 0407 446 024 or Candie Italiano on: 0429 159 506 to discuss this fabulous Cottesloe opportunity.<br/><br/>Rates & Local Information:<br/>Water Rates: $2,049.73 (2022/23)<br/>Council Rates: $3,557.62 (2023/24)<br/>Zoning: R20<br/>Primary School Catchment: North Cottesloe Primary School <br/>Secondary School Catchments: Shenton College<br/><br/>DISCLAIMER: This information is provided for general information purposes only and is based on information provided by third parties including the Seller and relevant local authorities and may be subject to change.
