This architect-designed home comprises two double-storey pavilions, with a central courtyard in between. Concrete, glass and recycled brick combine to create an industrial look. Louvred windows keep the air flowing through the main living zone, while the granite and stainless-steel benchtops and timber cladding make a statement in the galley-style kitchen opposite the courtyard. There is another living room upstairs.
The second pavilion is home to an office and the sleeping quarters, while the backyard has an alfresco area with gabled roof and a plunge pool.
“The current owners deliberately tried to blend this property into the West Leederville neighbourhood with the recycled bricks,” agent Craig Gaspar says. “This will always be an iconic property where buyers will appreciate the value.”

Set on 1412 square metres of prime beachfront land, this property has immense renovation or subdivision potential.

The pool area is serviced by an outdoor kitchen, sauna and two bathrooms.
