A Healthy Resort-Style Family Home Custom Crafted For Wellbeing With Ocean Glimpses

Celebrated as Sydney's healthiest house, this Matthew Gribben designed masterpiece combines sustainable design with green living credentials to deliver a private wellness sanctuary with a luxurious resort-like ambiance. Architecturally exhilarating, the custom-crafted four bedroom home has been carved into the hillside with hand-hewn sandstone reclaimed from the site and a zinc and Blackbutt facade ensuring a connectedness to nature and the environment. Every room is bathed in natural light with a creative design featuring sanctuary like bedrooms, intimate spaces for quiet retreat and lofty sun-filled living space overlooking the lush garden and 10m heated Magna pool through a striking picture window. The entire upper level is devoted to a luxurious parent's retreat, more like its own private apartment, complete with a home office, living room, cocktail bar and a sundeck with views over Coogee to the ocean and rear decks overlooking Fred Hollows Reserve. Every detail has been carefully considered to promote wellbeing from the non-toxic paint and whole-house water filtration system to the passive solar design and rainwater irrigation while ducted air, Sonos sound and automated blinds create a home that is not only healthy but a joy to live in.
