Just moments from the Indian Ocean, in Perth’s highly sought after Sorrento, this stunning custom residence by Calautti Homes captures the essence of refined coastal living. Built by an award-winning team renowned for craftsmanship and precision, the home is perfectly attuned to its setting, a seamless balance of light, texture, and materiality that reflects the relaxed sophistication of its oceanside location.
Occupying a corner block, the expansive home commands attention from all angles. A striking stone-clad feature wall anchors the façade, creating depth and permanence, while sleek horizontal planes and operable timber screens introduce rhythm and light. The combination of stone, aluminium and timber detailing delivers a calm, contemporary aesthetic, further elevated at night by architectural lighting that plays across the home’s sculptural forms and tactile finishes.
The project evolved through close collaboration between Calautti Homes, David Wilkes Design, and the interior designer Van Rhyn Designs, whose combined expertise in structure and finish helped refine every detail. Many of the home’s defining architectural gestures its curves, cantilevers and fine detailing were introduced during construction, showcasing the adaptability and precision that have long defined Calautti’s approach.
Inside, the palette is soft and restrained – light timbers, natural stone and gentle neutral tones echo the nearby coastline. Every element feels deliberate and cohesive, from the curved kitchen island and custom joinery to the expanses of glazing that flood the interiors with light. The design encourages openness and connection, with indoor and outdoor spaces merging effortlessly.
On both the ground and upper level, seamless connection to the outdoors is integral to the home’s design. Alfresco areas draw sea breezes through the home and frame views of the pool and landscaped courtyard. An outdoor fireplace ensures the space is equally usable and inviting in winter as it is during Perth’s warm summer days.
Upstairs, the master suite is a statement in refined sophistication, with high quality finishes and an ambiance reflecting that of a luxury boutique hotel. Throughout, subtle curves and shadowlines lend the architecture an elegant fluidity that feels at once contemporary and timeless. A spa like ensuite features his and her basins and a freestanding bath, while expansive bespoke cabinetry, sheer curtains and soft lighting elevate the space into a serene, private sanctuary. Throughout this exceptional residence the superior craftsmanship that Calautti Homes are renowned for is evident at every turn, a demonstration of how quality construction can transform the ordinary into the extraordinary.
Luxurious while being deeply connected to its beachside location, this Sorrento custom home is a celebration of modern coastal design and reflects Calautti Homes’ ongoing commitment to individuality, excellence, and the creation of homes that stand the test of time.
