Summerhaze - Coastal Classic
This iconic Floreat home built in 1963 designed by renowned architect Geoffrey Summerhayes has a timeless quality that seems to transcend the fleeting whims of the market.
Inspired by the cool modernism of Malibu Beach Houses of the period, the single level home embodies the coastal lifestyle with a crisp, white colour scheme illuminated by an abundance of natural light.
The 2010 restoration has brought the fittings and finishes up to date but left the Summerhaye's design more or less intact.
It is a fairly simple layout inside, centred on a big kitchen and its adjoining living areas. Caesarstone benches run around the edges of the open plan kitchen, which doubles as an informal dining area with a table in the middle. (a modern take on a country style kitchen)
The living room is a versatile, flowing space that will suit many different configurations including a study area. All four bedrooms branch off the main hall. What was once an open carport in now an enclosed gamesroom, opening to a long patio and pool deck that is ideal for large-scale entertaining.
Steps lead down to the sunken pool, which is separated from the deck by frameless glass screens.
The block faces South and there is plenty of open space at the front of the 916sqm landholding.
A feature is the elevated location with a gorgeous leafy green outlook from the terrace towards the golf course.
