Architect inspired to deliver comfort through ultra-modern simplicity this stunning home was designed to offer potential for the owners to live self contained on the first floor and to sublet the ground floor as a separate home and enjoy a rental income. Or top and bottom could each be let separately making a superb investment in this exclusive coastal enclave, possibly the jewel location of the entire Perth coast.

This can still be achieved at modest cost or the full spaciousness of the house enjoyed as a stand-out family home in this unique beachfront location plus there’s scope for a third floor addition.

The first floor opens up immediately on arrival in the extra large garage to a stunning coastal vista from the generous open plan kitchen, dining and living area that flows through huge glass sliders to a bespoke balcony designed meticulously to reduce wind so it is comfortable even when the sea-breeze is in. There are 99% block-out remote-controlled electric blinds to manage the sun, wind and rain when necessary.

Being the widest house lot on the street allowed the master bedroom to be at the front so you wake every morning with the rare privilege of ocean views from your pillow.

The finishes on the first floor include 2.8m high ceilings, direct-stick marri flooring, electric operated louvres, argon-filled double glazed full height commercial grade windows and sliders, lacquered kitchen cabinetry, granite bench tops, an 80cm induction cook top, concealed range hood, plumbed refrigerator for water and ice (fridge not included), fully-ducted reverse-cycle induction air-conditioning (Panasonic) with Izone. The granite continues in the ensuite with a double floating vanity and travertine.

The ground floor includes two bedrooms one with a small private courtyard and the other with views of the parkland opposite. The bathroom is finished in travertine and there’s an additional toilet and laundry with loads of cupboards and drying courtyard. The ground floor is polished concrete and the ceiling is 2.9m high. The large entry hall and living area with a kitchenette flows beautifully through double sliding doors onto a raised alfresco deck. There is a study nook on both levels.

This is an amazingly comfortable home, thoughtfully planned for its unique beachfront location and for making money if need be.

The unique location with Perth’s first netted swim beach complete with pontoon and slide for the kids. There is the wreck of the Omeo (1905) and the Trailswest dive trail and the iconic jetty. The cycle path extends from Woodmans Point to Fremantle and the Historic Coogee Hotel (recently bought by the founders of Little Creatures with big things planned) that will mark the coming of age of Coogee Beach as a pre-eminent western suburb. There is a golf course planned for the hill overlooking Cockburn Sound and the cafes are moving in.
