Perched on a cliff in the sought after seaside town of Scarborough, NSW, and offering panoramic ocean views, this new contemporary home by Sydney custom home builders Tass Constructions has been meticulously designed, engineered and constructed to endure the distinctive demands presented by its coastal clifftop setting.
Working with a long narrow block, the home’s striking modern facade is defined by two rectilinear structures clad in Victorian Sillvertop Ash, which will weather and age over time, adding an organic quality to the home, and beautifully complementing the stunning natural surrounds. Meticulous attention to detail was given to every aspect of the build, ensuring the home could stand up against harsh weather conditions, this included heavy bracing to comply with wind rating standards, and materials were carefully selected for wind rating compliance whilst simultaneously incorporating the client’s vision for their new home into the design.
Entering through an impressive iron door, the home’s minimalist aesthetic continues in the interior, with an industrial-style vibe created through a material selection that includes exposed stackbond brickwork, custom concrete benchtops and brushed copper tapware. Paying homage to the site’s history, the brick was chosen to reflect that which was used in the old Scarborough Post Office, adding an element of nostalgic charm to the home.
The expansive open plan living area maximises the breathtaking 180-degree views which are framed by floor-to-ceiling windows both on the lower and upper level that houses the master suite, this is accessed through a unique metal grill suspended walkway, further adding to the edgy urban appeal of the home. A further two bedrooms are located at the front of the property that also features a car turntable for easy access on to the busy street.
The result is an extraordinary coastal clifftop custom home that brings the client’s dream to life, showcasing Tass Constructions’ unwavering commitment to quality craftsmanship and attention to detail.
