House + Separate Studio + Superb Location

This delightfully comfortable small house, with supplementary accommodation to suit a larger lifestyle, on 2000 sq.m. of land presents an outstanding opportunity. Located in a protected bushland setting only 5 minutes walk to the town centre, in an established area without subdivision or tourism potential, the amenity is secure and peaceful. The natural delight of the place is a haven for birds, skinks, possums and the occasional kangaroo.

THE RESIDENCE

The architect designed house is efficient and complete, ready for immediate enjoyment. The beauty in the design is the luxury of space, light and the use of natural materials.

The residence’s iconic 1980s Margaret River style immaculately combines rammed earth, zincalume roof and local timbers. Nature is captured in each living space through the expansive windows and sliding doors. Light-filled spaces with high-raked ceilings, brightly rendered walls, and beautiful timber features flow throughout, from the kitchen to the quaint living areas. An office/desk space with adjacent built-in shelving is a subtle feature of the central space. The bespoke fireplace in the sunken lounge room provides warmth and atmosphere in the cooler months. For the warmer months, the windows and sliding doors allow ample cross ventilation to keep the place cool. Calmness and privacy extend into the bedroom, which features garden views and an ensuite bathroom.

ALFRESCO AREAS

The sliding glass door from the lounge room and jarrah entry door expand the living space to a delightful entertaining area. The north-facing deck at the front of the house leads to a lawned terrace contained by a granite retaining wall that defines the transition from the domestic to the natural world.
On the cooler south side of the house, the sliding glass door leads to a more private outdoor area to enjoy the tranquillity, or activity, afforded by the expanse of the low maintenance yard with access to the other great features of the property.

THE STUDIO

In the far corner of the property, the 14 sqm timber-framed structure features an earthscape feature wall and fine timber detailing Inside. Complete with a well finished bathroom and private courtyard, the area is an ideal studio space ; a perfect retreat for visiting family and friends, 20m behind the residence.

THE DOME

The geodesic dome is the ultimate workshop space. 6m in diameter and 4.7m high, this unique structure can also be used as a garage or whatever your imagination determines.

ZEN SPACE

Behind the dome is the ultimate meditation retreat to be in touch with nature and enjoy the sparkle of the curved wine bottle walls under a light-weight curved roof. A central feature is a day bed that can also be a work bench for whatever takes your fancy.
