Marlborough Street Home, Henley Beach

An extraordinary beach side home crafted to the highest of construction standards. The result of a rigorous planning and design process, this home has been designed with respect for the historic character of its locality, balancing traditional and contemporary materials, forms and details.

Environmental sustainability was a key component of the design brief resulting in large expanses of north facing glass with deep eaves, double glazed performance glass, and solar battery system (to offset creature comforts like ducted air-conditioning, underfloor heating and a heated pool).

The team behind Moor Living continually strives to challenge accepted approaches towards residential architecture, particularly searching for efficiencies in the use of spaces. This home has been designed to enable the dining room to be transformed to an undercover outdoor dining space leaving more space for garden – and a stunning pool that is the backdrop for views from many of the rooms.
