3 Egerton Street, Blairgowrie

Sheltered within the undulating dunes of Blairgowrie between spectacular Bridgewater Bay and the village, this newly constructed home is a combination of spaces and forms that interact beautifully with the landscape to create a private living oasis. The material palette is restrained, robust and timeless, including fine timber screens juxtaposed with light coloured concrete blocks. The highly considered arrangement of natural materials sits perfectly in harmony with the local coastal context. A separate garage structure at the front of the property, combined with the use of screens creates a discreet and intriguing street presence. The entry sequence begins in a calm, zen hall before arriving into the main living pavilion, with views out to the swimming pool beyond, a true domestic resort. The kitchen and dining area flows seamlessly out to the covered pool side terrace, while the living space address the front garden, with operable screens providing privacy and solar protection. Set perpendicular to the living pavilion, a two storey bedroom wing completes the L-shape, that wraps the private garden. The main bedroom, luxurious ensuite and walk in robe are on the upper floor, enjoying views down to the sparkling mosaic-tiled pool and spa and crazy-paving set in lush green lawns. The interior design takes its cue from the exterior. The well-portioned spaces with abundant natural light, feel tranquil and warm. Timber combined with stone and neutral colours creates a timeless interior in this classic, but very contemporary beach house. Designed by Pleysier Perkins Architects and newly completed by Rawlinson Constructions.
