Hidden discreetly behind its sculptural form, this extraordinary large family home delivers both sanctuary and inspiration. Designed by David Howell, based in New York, this bold yet warm & dreamy residence was created for carefree living and home life. Constructed in concrete, steel and aluminium joinery, it's a masterclass in honest, natural materials and design efficiency. Security and privacy on a large section that is almost no-maintenance, making it the perfect lock and leave for easy weekend getaways.
Inspiration originally came from mid-century case study houses of California and are felt in every detail of this home. Think 3.6m white gallery walls, expansive glass that captures the full arc of the northern sun, and deep eaves that cool the interiors in summer and trap sun in the winter. The result? A home that is visually arresting yet profoundly liveable all year.
Spaces flow effortlessly from one to the next. The kitchen and family room lead into a place to gather and linger, warmed by an outdoor fire and seamlessly connected to the heated pool. The internal lounge, also fire-lit, is a retreat where ceiling tiles absorb sound and add architectural rhythm.
There are three living areas, five double bedrooms, a self-contained apartment with separate access and its own garage, or space for the boat or special toy, astro turf lawn designed for year-round play and relaxation with in-ground trampoline. Bayfield School is just minutes' walk away.
A dramatic, versatile family home with soul, where architecture meets art, and style meets ease.
