Adjacent to a popular beach at the scenic tip of Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula, Sorrento Beach House cuts a cleverly enigmatic profile from street perspective.
Its restrained, consciously civic frontage only hints at the wonderfully abundant garden oasis beyond, where a connected pair of pavilions generously accommodate an art-loving resident client, her visiting family, and the occasional guest in blissful privacy.
The forward-thinking property achieves sustainability from both an environmental and social perspective – sensitive to its site and its contribution to the neighbourhood as well as the long-term impact on the lives of its inhabitants.
Comfortingly insular, inward-looking pavilions encourage togetherness, enhance the experience of its idyllic surrounds, and stand as a considered contemporary example of intergenerational living.
