Panoramic outlooks and expansive, multi-level spaces.
Offering sweeping views and a sense of openness, the residence features multi-level spaces that connect seamlessly with the surrounding Yarra corridor landscape. The design includes a roof terrace that enhances the connection to the natural environment, creating a harmonious blend of indoor and outdoor living.
Collaborating closely with esteemed interior designer David Hicks, the home’s landscaping continues that design language of the built environment showcasing contemporary elements such as travertine and bronze-stained timbers, highlighted by sculptural Japanese box ball topiary and a striking façade of stone-clad blade walls. At the same time, a vibrant array of flora—from Crepe Myrtles to hydrangeas—enhances the outdoor beauty.
A key element of the residence’s two-storey design is a mezzanine terrace that provides privacy and views, connecting indoor and outdoor areas with a lawn to the north and a wet-edge pool to the west. Weeping lilly pilly drips over the fence line while a colonnade element is adorned in wisteria. This layered backdrop shapes a flower and foliage-forward atmosphere that instils a tranquil ambience around such upscale features as a fireplace, outdoor kitchen, and a stunning rooftop terrace with a spa and teppanyaki bar.
