This stunning Cott beachfront home celebrates the great outdoors
Less than 200 metres from the shimmering waters of South Cottesloe, this eclectic home is as luxurious as it is welcoming and warm.
Let’s take a peek inside thanks to our friends at Crib Creative!
Designed by David Barr of lauded Fremantle architecture studio Cast, 7 Warton Street is a remarkable transformation of a ’60s beige brick home.
Its mid-century origins are echoed throughout – not just in its geometric façade, offset by that winding pathway and coastal garden – but with a spectacular use of spotted gum in floors, ceilings and an impressive raft of built-in cabinetry.
Dominating the façade are a series of sliding timber screens, which shield the north-facing balcony, adjoining the upper level living and dining room.
On the ground level, the home’s hub centres around that impressively timber-clad kitchen. While resolutely minimalist, the floor-to-ceiling spotted gum cabinetry, recessed lighting and window into the backyard ensures it doesn’t feel cold or unwelcoming.
Floor-to-ceiling sliding doors create a seamless flow between inside and out – whether you’re moving between the living room and the grove-like garden or from the kitchen into the elegant alfresco with built-in fireplace and barbecue.
On the same level of the home, the primary bedroom suite is a contemporary oasis – with plenty of mid-century charm. Built-in storage showcases more of that glorious timber grain and impart some of that mid-century flavour while being the ultimate in practicality, and make the basis of that sweet window seat. Across the hall, a cosy study looks out onto the home’s lush entryway.
Upstairs, two more bedrooms, two more bathrooms and a retreat mean there’s plenty of space for you and the kids, guests and anyone else to spread out.
