Idyllic Home in North Adelaide
The construction of this contemporary, architecturally designed luxury home in North Adelaide required meticulous planning and innovative solutions to overcome various site challenges. From heritage considerations to integrating with surrounding structures and addressing local community concerns, Precision Homes navigated these complexities with expertise and strong communication, earning the trust and appreciation of the homeowners.
In the intricate process of designing attached dwellings, both homeowners collaborated closely on material selections, and found consensus on shared exterior finishes. The darker colour palette and introspective aesthetic is complemented by warm timber soffits and soft LED strip lighting. This resulted in a façade that exudes charm day and night, fitting seamlessly into its serene location on a quiet street overlooking the golf course.
Materials and finishes were carefully selected to harmonise with structural requirements while enhancing aesthetic appeal and functionality. The integration of modern claddings, off-form concrete, and steel structures was seamlessly managed to complement the overall design and environmental considerations.
The design of the home capitalises on its unique suburban outlook with expansive front windows on both levels, framing picturesque views. The interior design was crafted around the theme of family, emphasising contemporary yet practical selections to welcome all who enter. Spanning three levels, the master bedroom suite, kitchen, and main living areas are thoughtfully situated on the ground floor for convenience and daily ease.
The master bedroom at the front of the property offers stunning views of the native Australian flora nearby, with a private balcony creating a tranquil retreat. The adjacent ensuite further enhances relaxation with its serene ambiance and natural light filtering through the lightwell.
The ground floor was tailored with family gatherings in mind, featuring a spacious kitchen and a pantry ideal for accommodating a bustling household. The alfresco area has dual functionality and design incorporated for entertaining on weekends, while also serving as a daily oasis for the homeowners – celebrating their love for their surroundings. At the rear of the property, a commissioned mural, by Port Elliot artist Richard John, depicting William Light’s original plan for Adelaide adds a unique touch, honouring the area’s heritage.
Longevity was a key consideration throughout the design process, highlighted by features such as a beautifully tiled lift-well providing easy access between floors – should the homeowners’ needs evolve over time. This forward-thinking approach underscored their commitment to staying in their home for years to come, prioritising practicality and comfort.
This masterfully created home exudes elegance and functionality both inside and out, with a seamless integration of innovative design solutions blended harmoniously with the character and heritage of North Adelaide.
