Chatham Cottage

Located in the heritage precinct of Woodbridge Perth Western Australia, this is a high performance home with an energy effiency rating of 8.9.

A modern take on an Australian workers cottage built with a combination of passivhaus and solar passive principles makes this home arguably one of the most comfortable homes in the greater area.  

A home with a layout designed with the city's climate in mind, facade sympathetic to its place in a historic precinct. 

Shadowline skirting pulls you through the property with mimicking negative detail on the 3.2m kitchen island, a consistent colour palette of greige, pops of black and concrete floors create cohesiveness. There are further layers of texturing with polished plaster and feature brick walls.

Another key feature is the Northern Terrace, a lovely long outdoor space that can be used in many ways throughout the seasons. The kitchen, dining, living and a bedroom all have access to it with a myriad of sliders including an engineering feat, a columness corner, blurring the lines between indoor and outdoor living.

The internal wet areas have a Perth first internal waterproof lining creating a point of difference. Easy to clean these wall linings are artworks themselves.
