Vaucluse NSW 2030

And a remarkable Burley Katon Halliday design makes sure that every room takes maximum advantage of the privilege the 6 bedroom home s elevated Vaucluse peninsular position provdes. Full-length glass feature walls define all the important living spaces, including one more than 10 metres wide that gives the master suite an all-encompassing cityscape of Sydney.
BKH s edgy take on classic modern architecture is evident everywhere. The creative ingenuity of three BKH icons - Iain Halliday, Ian Moore and David Katon - is responsible for both its overall grandeur and its striking points of difference the raised floor that defines its formal living spaces, including the hidden lighting, the sunken bath and two Halliday-designed barbecues.
From a grand marble entrance, formal and casual living spaces wrap themselves around an expansive north-facing courtyard overlooking the solar-heated pool. All cabinetry is integrated into the design aesthetics in keeping with Halliday s passion for elegant simplicity. Two bespoke tapestries add their elegance to, and define, the formal living space. Lighting is invisible until switched on, when each living space is washed with light from behind recesses and translucent panels. The same design sophistication hallmarks the kitchen, bathroom and even the laundry.
Two bedrooms open out to stone-paved courtyards. The sixth is self-contained guest accommodation.
The master suite enjoys a privileged own floor position. Its views would be considered enviable from any of the world s great cities. It has its own sun-deck and includes a large sitting room, a strikingly beautiful ensuite with sunken bath and double walk-through wardrobe.
