21 Stringybark Drive, Torquay VIC 3228

The brief and inspiration for this amazing project was a love of modern architecture, coastal living and a passion to create an ecofriendly haven to blend in with the natural environment that this amazing site delivers. This Pleysier Perkins creation brings simplicity and elegance effortlessly, reflecting a blend of coastal influence and iconic design elements that define the homes classic style. The inspiration of the house is a surfboard ‘stringer’ sitting low and long with the goal to maximise the length of the envelope yet appearing light, sleek and as unobtrusive as possible to the landscape
The design element offers two distinct areas detached from each other but key to the synergy of the overall design. The first, a separate self-contained studio/home office that could be utilised in multiple ways giving the occupants privacy away from the mainstream activities of the household.
The home itself offers a unique feel once inside, two main living areas are highlighted by the timber herring bone base with under floor hydronic heating. One area, a kitchen/dining/living zone with well-appointed kitchen, large walk in pantry and stunning Christopher Boots statement light and combustion wood fire, that adds flare and warmth to this amazing room. The secondary living zone is a relaxing separate space with access to the large external deck ideal for entertaining and enjoying what nature has on offer. The master bedroom has a spacious walk in robe and full ensuite with floor to ceiling tiles again highlighting the quality and finish of the home. A further two sizeable bedrooms, family bathroom and laundry complete the floor plan of this extremely impressive residence.
Other features include: 6 star rating, passively designed, double glazed windows, led lighting, hydronic panel heating, industrial windows, floor to ceiling doors, wool carpets, electronic retractable blind and so much more……
