Iconic Identity, Enduring Appeal
At the cutting edge of design when completed c1960 and still uniquely, unforgettably stylish today, this elevated four bedroom, two bathroom home on over 9,500 sq ft
[ 882 sq m ] was conceived and created by renowned Melbourne architect David Godsell. Innovative yet entirely user-friendly spaces featuring an abundance of beautiful Californian redwood include two inviting living areas, intimate dining and a central kitchen that was clearly ahead of its time. Downstairs study, which has served successfully as fourth bedroom, is accompanied by original bathroom, while second bathroom, upstairs, is surrounded by three further bedrooms, BIRs, including spacious main bedroom with leafy aspects and decked balcony. Generous rear garden and three integrated courtyards ensure outdoor appeal matches memorable interior impact. Home office with separate entrance, and tandem carport complete a property of distinctive identity, influenced by Frank Lloyd Wright, but also reflective of signature Godsell style.
A great location close to schools, parks and the beach forms the perfect context for enjoying this iconic house.
