Sophisticated design for effortless living: A unique home for the modern age
Lovingly remodelled for a sustainable future, this warm and inviting mid-century marvel is a testament to considered, architectural prowess and climate conscious, passive design principles, with design credit going to Cate Hall and her architect partner. Blurring the lines between inside and out, sculptural native gardens form a pictorial backdrop to the layered living zones that define the light-filled interior, while the secluded, tree-lined setting is walking distance from transport, local cafes, and the winding, Yarra River trails.
- Resplendent dining area with open fireplace enjoys a wealth of natural light via a large bay window that leads out to an alfresco balcony showcasing verdant, treetop views.
- Custom kitchen, framed in crafted joinery wall units, comes complete with stone-topped island and breakfast bench, stainless-steel- counters, premium appliances, and a walk-in pantry.
- Passively designed living room features stained timber beams on shear masonry walls, meeting the backyard at a hardwood deck and second alfresco area with statement pizza oven.
- Lush, sprawling gardens present a series of mature, distinctive landscapes, surrounded by fruit groves, terraced planting, and retaining walls of recycled brick.
