Nestled among the picturesque hills of Port Elliot, South Australia, stands an exquisite residence that welcomes an abundance of natural light.
This radiant illumination flows through Rylock Commercial Series windows and doors, all adorned with a Textura™ Black powder coat finish.
Situated in an area with an N3 wind speed classification, this home’s structural integrity is fortified by the heavy-duty extrusions of its chosen products, ensuring it can withstand the site’s demanding conditions. Furthermore, careful consideration was given to its Bushfire Attack Level (BAL-19) rating when selecting custom product solutions for the site.
The architectural charm of this dwelling arises from its unique combination of claddings and rendered brick, complemented by the rich textures of timber and stone materials. This natural palette seamlessly harmonizes with the surrounding earthy and picturesque coastal landscape.
The heart of the home is the open-plan living room, where custom-designed, raked awning windows trace the pitch of the roof, creating a dramatic visual impact. The room’s centerpiece is a cozy window seat that provides a perfect vantage point for gazing upon the idyllic Fleurieu Peninsula and a welcoming fireplace. The house is thoughtfully designed with passive principles, featuring external shading on the north-facing elevation and electric operator awning windows in the living room to facilitate cross-flow ventilation.
Large sliding doors connect the living space to the alfresco area and gardens beyond, and a sliding servery window in the kitchen enhances the seamless indoor-outdoor connection, allowing for effortless entertaining while passing food and drinks between the living spaces.
Each bedroom boasts awning windows strategically positioned close to the floor level, offering unobstructed views of the picturesque surroundings and inviting cool sea breezes into the home. To maintain a comfortable internal temperature, all windows and doors are equipped with Rylock’s Comfort Solution, featuring low-e, high-performance double glazing with argon fill as a standard specification. Additionally, Rylock’s Solar Solutions, which also includes low-e, high-performance double glazing with argon fill, have been specified on select elevations to significantly reduce the heat transfer from direct sunlight, as measured by the SHGC (solar heat gain coefficient).
With meticulous craftsmanship and unwavering attention to detail, this remarkable residence, created by the award-winning custom builder 4Life Constructions, offers the epitome of lifestyle in a quintessentially Australian environment.
