Onto a winner

Located on south City Beach’s golden mile, 53 Branksome Gardens offers a stylish and spacious opportunity.

Built last year, the five-bedroom, five-bathroom award-winning home by Giorgi spans four vast levels, including a luxurious loft.

The architectural masterpiece won several awards at the 2020 Housing Industry Association (HIA) COLORBOND® steel Perth Housing Awards, including Home of the Year, the John Pietersen Award for Custom Built Home of the Year and the Residential Interior Design award, as well as being a finalist for the Peter Overman Award for Innovation in Housing.

The City Beach stunner also took out an award at the 2020 HIA Western Australian Kitchen & Bathroom Awards in the New Kitchen over $100,001 category.

Realmark Coastal Sales Associate Oliver Hess said this home would suit many buyers searching for a luxurious and coastal lifestyle.

“A young family could easily make themselves at home, with grassed areas for the kids to run freely and an infinity-edge pool for them to swim in,” he said.

“The property would also suit someone already living in the area wanting a change of scenery on a more manageable block, perhaps an older couple.”

From the outset, a striking architectural facade boasts an industrial yet minimalist design, with concrete and steel cladding creating a striking juxtaposition.

The driveway is lined by established gardens before leading to an enormous six-car lock-up garage with a workshop and storeroom area.

Also on the basement level is an internal shopper’s entry revealing a drop zone area leading to a walk-in designer wine cellar, perfect for those who enjoy a glass of red.

A versatile theatre room and a gym, doubling as a home office, also resides on the basement level with a lift service to all three floors.

“It’s difficult to choose a standout feature on this property when every aspect is a standout – vaulted ceilings, a self-watering vertical garden and electric louvres – the luxurious details make it so exceptional,” Mr Hess said.

On the first floor, buyers are greeted by remarkable soaring double-volume raking and curved high ceilings adorned with crisp, neutral tones.

Further into the home, an integrated Miele fridge, freezer and multiple ovens headline an open-plan kitchen, while the marble breakfast bar provides a hint of luxury.

Also on the first floor is a sunken living room with a fireplace, adjacent to two minor bedrooms, each with their own ensuite and walk-in robes.

“Due to the orientation of the home, north-facing windows provide wind protection,” Mr Hess said.

“The zoning of the home optimises entertaining, as well as each family member’s privacy.

“The master bedroom is separate to the minor bedrooms, providing a private and separate wing.”

Entertaining is fulfilled by a shimmering infinity-edge lap pool, immaculately overlooked by an entertaining alfresco where an outdoor barbecue separates sprawling sunken backyard lawns and gardens from the frameless bi-fold doors of the dining area.

“The entertaining value of this property is endless, designed to maximise indoor and outdoor living,” Mr Hess said.

“The sunken lounge theme is present in the downstairs lounge and outdoor entertaining area. Dropping an area helps to define open areas without putting up walls, also subtly separating the lounge from the rest of the interiors.”

The next level is a haven of relaxation, with a sitting room separating the two remaining bedroom suites from the master bedroom – an absolute standout, boasting a feature ensuite with a stretching vanity, a freestanding bath and a separate shower tucked away in a hidden alcove.

“The curved archways present in the kitchen and master bedroom have an unusual design, where one piece of wood has been bent slowly over time to achieve its curved shape,” Mr Hess said.

“South City Beach is a small beachside hamlet of approximately 300 homes. Buyers can expect to live a relaxed lifestyle located on the oceanside of the highway and in close proximity to the beach, only a five-minute stroll away.”
