The site boasts incredible views of the ocean, beachside suburbs, and Wedding Cake Island to the south, while to the north, the home faces a busy street, beyond which lies Waverley Cemetery. In response to this, the main living areas have been located on the upper level, taking full advantage of the incredible south facing aspect, with bedrooms set on the ground floor for privacy. The lower ground floor is home to additional living areas, connecting to the private rear garden and pool area.
Acacia was commissioned to provide a suite of expansive floor to ceiling windows and sliding door units in Rosewood to complement the home’s design, take full advantage of the abundant natural light and maximise the views at the rear of the home. The large format windows at the front of the home are shielded by stunning sculptural timber screens, comprising of thousands of randomly arranged individual blocks, meticulously crafted by project builder Milestone Custom Builders. The screens act to filter views of the adjacent Waverley Cemetery as well as providing privacy for the bedrooms and the living area. At night, light penetrating the screens provides the home with a cosy, lantern-like appearance.
