Hidden between a secluded laneway and leafy streetscape, this is an incredible architectural vision brought to life. Designed on solar passive principles with a distinct indoor-outdoor feeling, a natural palette of rammed earth, glass and timber is quietly luxurious, while polished concrete lends a touch of cool minimalism across airy, open spaces. The local deli and Café Lumos are ‘round the corner, Booyeembara Park is just a stroll away, and Freo is minutes by car from this fabulous lifestyle location.
Tucked down a discreet driveway, the unassuming exterior reveals a secret sanctuary, crafted by Troppo Architects. Beyond a wide northern deck overlooking a garden of frangipani and succulents, a central breezeway runs through a series of tiered pavilions and courtyards, while bi-folds and louvres invite airflow and light at every opportunity. Glass pivots open to the main living and dining, built-in entertainment unit and all, while the kitchen is stunning in its simplicity: stainless-steel breakfast bar and appliances, plywood finishes, and a filtered water tap. Air-conditioning and a ceiling fan ensure year-round comfort.
Indoor courtyards, covered in greenery, merge into each of the bedrooms: the master with air-conditioning, a walk-in robe and ensuite, a study that sits beside a sleek bathroom and laundry, and a third bedroom to the rear with air-conditioning and built-in robes – all with ceiling fans. Another courtyard conceals a zenful outdoor bathroom and washing line for the laundry, before rising to a second living area with a kitchenette and exterior access to Lois Lane.
Solar power and rainwater tanks nod to the home’s commitment to sustainability, with two side-by-side storerooms out the back, including driveway parking for two cars off the laneway.
There’s a sense of ease and wonder in a home like this – beautiful spaces, sustainable design and thoughtful finishes, all in a wonderful Valley location.
