Crafted high on the rise of an old limestone ridge, capturing some of the best outlooks you’ll ever find in the Valley – this is a remarkable family home, built for forever. Ever-changing landscapes rise and unfold across the horizon, from the working port to distant islands and sunsets dipping below the ocean, while the timeless design feels at one with its natural surrounds. Conceived by a brilliant architectural and building team – including multi-award-winning Humphrey Homes – beautiful spaces have been curated to feel open and inviting, with plenty of flexibility.
Hidden down a long driveway, fragrant walls of jasmine and beds of coastal flora create a serene, green entrance. Inside, bespoke stainless-steel, oregon and marri doors reveal a remarkable sight: polished concrete floors, stone and blackbutt features, and reminders of nature everywhere. The kitchen runs parallel to the wide entranceway, with a suite of appliances integrated into the silky oak cabinetry, framed by glass splashbacks.
Walls of glass stack open to the outdoors, with that feeling continued across the south-facing rooms – private balcony access to all. Two minor bedrooms each have ceiling fans, one with mirrored robes, with century-old Oregon doors throughout. Travertine features prominently in the laundry/bathroom, adding natural luxury, while below, the cedar-lined cellar/TV room is maintained at a comfortable 18 degrees year-round – perfect for the wine collection or as a quiet space for rest, work or play. It also includes under-stair storage.
Past a striking wall of stacked Donnybrook sandstone, stairs rise above to a breathtaking master level. Spanning 100m2, this private retreat unfolds to glossy blackbutt floors, built-in shelving, ambient lighting, loft storage, mirrored robes, ceiling fans, and air-conditioning, along with an indulgent ensuite: dual vanities, suspended rainshower and deep bath. Wrapping west-to-east, wisteria weaves around the balcony, with the most stunning outlooks across the valley: portside cranes, Rottnest, Carnac and Garden islands, and the rhythmic flash of Rottnest Lighthouse. From here, watch moody storms roll in, local birdlife come say hello, golden sunsets, and everything in between.
To the north, a private studio above the garage adds exceptional versatility – teenagers’ retreat, guest quarters, games room, home gym, Airbnb, or multi-generational living setup, currently used as Bed 4. Spacious and serene, it comes complete with split-system air, an ensuite, and future provisions to add its own kitchenette. Below, the double lock-up garage is the ultimate ‘man cave’ – workbenches, storage space, TV & Foxtel connections, plumbed fridge location and a separate toilet, with 3-phase power to add an EV charger.
Finally, outside, the gardens feel enchanting. Decking wraps the exterior leading to layers of intriguing zones: Donnybrook sandstone benches for the outdoor pizza oven and built-in barbecue, a pond, firepit nook, hammock for lounging, and an outdoor shower to rinse off after a day well-spent at the beach. A stretch of lawn, perfect for kids or pets, is framed by a fruitful lemon tree, crepe myrtle, and bamboo screening.
Additional features include an integrated smart-home system, hydronic in-slab floor heating, security alarm with CCTV, ducted vacuum, garden reticulation, and keypad access to the gated entrance, front door, and garage.
This is such a special home: your very own secret sanctuary, quietly elevated, wrapped in greenery, and finished with exceptional craftsmanship – minutes from vibrant Freo and every lifestyle convenience.
