Anglesea House is a generous and refined residence that maximises views to the Anglesea coastline while opening up broader vistas of the surrounding hillside. A clean, geometric approach to architecture is established by a precise horizontal roofline stretching lengthways across the site, with apertures and deep-set eaves mediating between providing generous light and protecting external entertaining and viewing decks. The home’s programming follows considered planning, continuing the sense of architectural clarity seen on the exterior through an efficient approach to structure and construction. Unfolding across two levels, a generous terrace welcomes visitors via a double volume entry where a drystone wall frames upstairs views onto existing vegetation to gently draw navigation up and through. At the top of the stairs, the view shifts to provide a wide-ranging outlook towards the coast whilst maintaining privacy through elevation and viewing angles. The lower level has been designed to act as a retreat space, utilising the natural fall of the site to create flexible sleeping spaces that can accommodate large groups as is traditional to the beach house vernacular.
