8/80 Clyde Street in Thornbury is a beautiful one-bedroom residence with an additional study or flexible space, situated within the intimate and highly regarded 'Clyde Mews' development. Designed by award-winning Six Degrees Architects, this boutique community of just eight homes offers a thoughtful, sustainable alternative to conventional medium-density living, where eco-conscious design, authentic materials and a strong sense of community come together only a few kilometres from the city.
The apartment immediately sets a distinctive mood. A gourmet kitchen featuring Carrara marble surfaces and high-end appliances, including Miele, flows into a generous open plan living and dining area. Raw and reclaimed materials inject warmth and texture, characteristic of Six Degrees' playful, tactile design language. The west-facing decked balcony extends the living space outdoors, creating a tranquil setting. A second, north-south facing entry balcony sits within the treetops, creating a quiet retreat.
Sustainability is woven into every aspect of the home. A 7.5-Star NatHERS rating is achieved through passive solar design, double glazing, high-grade insulation, cross-ventilation, carpeting in bedroom and study, a 1.5kW solar array, a substantial 30,000-litre greywater and rainwater system, efficient heating and cooling, Aerotron fans and eco-efficient lighting throughout. Details such as louvre windows, bespoke Mark Douglass pendant lighting and Six Degrees' signature leadlight touches further elevate the character and environmental ethos.
The bathroom offers a serene experience with luxurious floor-to-ceiling tiles, a deep bath and a Carrara marble vanity. Practicality is thoughtfully addressed with an enclosed power-equipped storage room – ideal for bikes or additional storage needs – along with a secure undercover car space.
Clyde Mews itself is a rare blend of community-minded living and refined design. Apartments are arranged around a beautifully landscaped communal garden featuring growing beds, native plantings, a reclaimed timber boardwalk and shared spaces that encourage connection. It is a quiet, low-density environment designed for those who value sustainability, privacy and community in equal measure.
8/80 Clyde Street offers a unique opportunity to live in a home that balances style, environmental responsibility and everyday convenience. With public transport, parks, cafés, schools and Thornbury's vibrant local amenities all close by, this residence delivers lifestyle and design.
