An incredibly unique opportunity to secure a spectacular coastal lifestyle property. Emma Mitchell Architects is formidable at designing special houses on the coast and creates magic by working around special landscape environments, with the ability of drawing them into the home. Engaging an architect that intimately understands Anglesea and the beauty of both bush and ocean has clearly resulted in this awe-inspiring property. Having been completed in 2015, the house has a timeless and contemporary feel that will forever stand on its own given the solid build, land site and unencumbered landscape that will always be there.
Living in this house encapsulates the intangible attributes of owning a coastal home, including understanding the day parts and how to best showcase them. The main bedroom is situated to watch the sun rise above the ocean from Point Addis and over the hills, being woken by sunlight on your face and watching the colours of the sky is not only mesmerising but the reason why owning a beach house delivers moments of dreams being fulfilled. The window seat converts to a bathtub, so if you can’t draw yourself away from the bedroom, soaking in the tub elongates the morning and instils peace in your mindset. A walk-in robe and separate ensuite bathroom, wall panel heater and feature panel glass windows complete this space.
The entry of the house has a welcoming sun and entertaining deck to enjoy afternoon warmth from the north / west facing aspect and features a large spa pool, able to be heated to 38 degrees which can be enjoyed all year round. Sunsets are embraced from the spa and this side of the house, ensuring the end of the day is spent as it began, in a peaceful and relaxed state.
Large sliding doors create an indoor and outdoor feel, stepping inside to the open plan kitchen and dining room. Walls of glass and feature windows, constantly drawing the eye to trees, ocean and sky, the light is sensational. The kitchen is well appointed with a large bench for casual meals and ease of cooking and conversing, a cleverly hidden pantry enables clean lines, and all appliances and catering requirements are tucked away. The dining room connects effortlessly to the kitchen and can easily host large dinner parties or lunch for two, the north-east facing deck is within reach so morning coffees can be enjoyed outside. The upper polished concrete floor has hydronic heating under foot, so it always feels a perfect temperature, so when the sun is not warming the space there is always a natural feeling option.
The lounge is just a few steps away, separating the dining from the living however seamlessly connecting the spaces together, a cosy wood fire and sliding TV cabinet create a perfect place to enjoy music, movies or chatting when you can draw yourself away from the views.
The second bedroom is spacious and has built in robes, another window positioned perfectly means this guest is also enjoying mornings waking up to coastline and trees. A third bedroom, has been designed around flexibility, so easily offers a place for work & study with a built-in desk along with room for a bed adjusting living from day to night and yes another aspect to capture the scenery. The main bathroom and powder room are positioned within easy reach of bedrooms and main living, so easy for residents. The laundry is central and can be used as an addition to the kitchen for extra bench space or even a bar area. Lovely use of cupboard doors so it blends with the interior design colour scheme.
