Home of the Year

HIA NSW-CSR Housing and Kitchen & Bathroom Awards

Winner: Chateau Architects + Builders

This waterfront residence embodies dynamism, grandeur, and vibrancy, meticulously designed to create a striking architectural statement. 

Exposed structural elements accentuate its form, while the warmth of timber-clad walls and ceilings contrasts beautifully with the industrial aesthetic of concrete and steel. 

Approachable via a steep driveway, the facade captivates with its bold lines and striking black steel and timber detailing. Step inside to discover a spacious gallery room adorned with curved glazed walls, inviting natural light to fill the space. Upstairs, the bedrooms offer panoramic views, each accompanied by luxurious private ensuites. Throughout the home, timber detailing harmonizes with concrete and glass elements, maintaining a cohesive design theme. 

A lift transports occupants to the expansive living areas, seamlessly connecting to the pool terrace. In the adjacent kitchen, twin islands, a scullery, and breathtaking views cater to both culinary enthusiasts and admirers of fine design. 

Celebrating purity in materials, simplicity in form, and generosity in space, this residence is a testament to refined elegance and modern living.
