Overview

This impressive architectural home designed by Josh Cole of WORKCRAFT and completed in 2024 offers a unique blend of sophisticated modern design and deep connection to its tranquil coastal setting. Nestled on a sizable 634 square meter allotment, the elevated structure thoughtfully preserves mature Moonah trees, providing natural privacy and a serene atmosphere enhanced by native gardens and bird sounds.

Inside, the spacious open plan living and dining areas are embraced by soaring raked ceilings and copious natural light that floods through skylights and expansive double-glazed stacking doors. These doors seamlessly connect the indoors with an elegantly landscaped courtyard and Spotted Gum decking, fostering effortless indoor-outdoor living perfect for entertaining or quiet relaxation.

The home’s refined interiors feature wide-board engineered oak floors, bespoke joinery, hoop pine ceilings, and carefully positioned skylights that frame the sky and create a dynamic, warm environment. A sculptural concrete hearth with an Escea wood fireplace adds comfortable warmth during cooler seasons, complemented by a north-facing window seat and an inviting dining banquette fostering conversation.

The kitchen is both beautiful and highly functional, appointed with premium Electrolux appliances, an Artedomus porcelain island breakfast bar, a concealed bar, powered pantry nook, and an integrated workstation that blend everyday practicality with sleek, streamlined design.

The generous master bedroom offers tranquil outlooks to the surrounding Moonahs, with dual-sided built-in robes, plush New Zealand wool carpet, and a skylit ensuite featuring a walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms incorporate integrated desks and shelving, making the residence well-suited for families or those requiring work-from-home space, complemented by a well-appointed main bathroom with garden views.

This fully electric home boasts hydronic heating, heat-pump technology, thick insulated walls, double glazing, excellent natural ventilation, plus a 10kW solar system with battery storage and EV charging capabilities, promoting sustainability and self-sufficiency. Outdoor living is further enhanced by landscaped indigenous gardens designed by Simon Taylor Landscaping, automated irrigation zones, a firepit, vegetable gardens, a hot/cold outdoor shower, and ample storage for recreational gear.

With a peaceful location just moments from the Barwon River and village amenities, this residence balances privacy and community access. The single carport and additional off-street parking complete a low-maintenance, thoughtfully crafted home that offers distinct and modern coastal living in a prestigious area.
