Bold contemporary lines
A stunning contemporary residence, created by designer Steven McGinley, to optimise light and space, lies beyond the parapet faade of this former Victorian terrace. Located at the end of a tranquil cul-de-sac, the house is entered by two sets of French doors opening to a north-facing courtyard, planned for year-round entertaining. Separated by an elevated Ecosmart fireplace, the high-ceilinged living and dining zones are open to an elegant bespoke kitchen, fitted with 5-burner Italian stainless steel range and extensive storage. To the side of the glassed gallery which runs to the rear is a landscaped light court. Opening from the gallery are an elegant bathroom with separate bath and shower and an understair study. A light-filled bedroom overlooks the paved courtyard and concealed laundry. Car access from the right of way is via a custom-built vertical lift door.
A 'floating' staircase with recycled jarrah treads ascends to the first floor, where banks of metal-framed windows draw streams of light. The upstairs rooms have gracefully angled ceilings: the bedroom to the front gives pleasing rooftop views to two sides; the large bedroom to the rear has a full wall of glass
