An expression of architectural excellence, '7 Courtyard House' brings the considered design of Shaun Lockyer to one of Clayfield's premier streets. Set on a north-south facing allotment, this meticulously curated residence unfolds across two levels, with a series of courtyards connecting its living spaces to landscaped gardens by landscape architect Steven Clegg. Concrete, timber and "Super White" marble establish a refined material palette, while the carefully composed layout invites natural light, breezes and garden outlooks into the living spaces. The thoughtful design balances architectural presence, family comfort and outdoor living.
A long concrete colonnade and distinctive timber screening establish a memorable arrival, introducing the home's linear form and its relationship with the landscape. Within, large rosewood stacker doors open the interconnected living and dining spaces to alfresco courtyards, creating an inviting setting for gatherings that move between indoors and out. The marble kitchen, butler's pantry and premium Sub-Zero and V-Zug appliances support both everyday meals and larger celebrations, complemented by an outdoor Wolf barbecue.
Beyond the interiors, the swimming pool with its 16.6m lap lane and the sun deck create a setting for exercise, relaxation and summer entertaining. The gym, sauna, putting green and netted sports court bring further recreation into daily life. Five bedrooms and a dedicated office accommodate the changing needs of a family, with the main suite offering a walk-in robe, ensuite, and balcony overlooking the pool. From afternoons spent playing basketball to evenings beside the outdoor fireplace, the home offers a richly varied lifestyle within its own grounds.
