Laurie Virr was a firm believer that architecture was the highest form of art and that all people should have access to it. He shared a deep passion for the organic style architecture. That is clearly displayed at 9 Steinwedel St Farrer. In what is arguably one of his finest works . This home features a stunning combination of glass, timber and double brick construction, perfectly balancing these architectural elements.
On entry you are greeted with towering ceilings and an expanse of parquetry floors. Views through huge picture frame windows over your pool, to Black Mountain tower, provide the perfect backdrop. Not one, but two fireplaces will provide the perfect ambience for your favourite wine in winter months . An extension provides a huge guests bedroom or living space, meaning a versatile floor plan, to meet your changing needs.
Entertain in your pool with its own pool room and serve cocktails on the large terrace at dinner parties. The galley style kitchen looks to green gardens and features 5 metre ceilings. Every where you look, is like a turn into a new room in a gallery, you will never tire of the exquisite architecture, views or central location. You're home.
Laurie Virr was an architect without equal and a man who never faltered in his desire to inspire others. He was an architect, teacher, environmentalist. He continued mentoring until his final days, and the legacy that he leaves behind is present here at 9 Steinwedel street Farrer. He was an innovative and original thinker, now you can become part of his unique vision.
