A Lovingly Revived Mid-Century Masterpiece With DA Approval For A Rooftop Parents Retreat
Description
Originally designed by Bill Lucas one of Australias most influential modernist architects this mid-century marvel serves as a fine example of the shelter in nature minimalist compositions of the Sydney School of architecture. Revolutionary in its day and still outstanding in its conception and design the north-facing property is perched high for privacy on a dual access block with level rear access to double garaging. Open sightlines from front to back create an uplifting sense of flow and energy and allow the home to engage with the outdoors while a signature internal courtyard draws natural light into the heart of the home. Tastefully renovated in keeping with the homes modernist aesthetic Langwith is wrapped in a series of alfresco spaces with a custom kitchen as the social heart of the home and two new designer bathrooms. Eschewing all notions of the traditional terrace the north-facing home is crowned with a huge rooftop with sweeping valley views over Bellevue Hill that comes with DA approval to convert the space into a luxurious whole-floor parents retreat with a landscaped Zen garden as a stunning centrepiece.
