“A private, modern, resort-like home with a feature plunge pool that is connected to the house… a home that is open plan and great for entertaining small groups of people.”
Client brief.
Located in the township of Torquay, Victoria’s surfing and beachside capital, the client’s of this design sought a home that was very private from the street and would allow them to enjoy their luxurious and secluded, resort-style sanctuary.
The entry, living spaces and outdoor terrace enjoy the feature integrated plunge pool and reflection pond which enhances the resort-style ambience they wished to enjoy. The indoor spaces flow out to the outdoor alfresco area, pool and deck making it a great place for entertaining guests.
A sunken living space adds another dimension to the open plan living areas becoming another place to retreat and relax, it also provided the opportunity for low-level feature joinery and a fire place which delineated the living and dining spaces.
The upper level is designated for guests and includes two private bedroom suites, each with ensuites and walk-in robes, and a shared guest lounge between them.
