A graphically simple composition, Red Hill House by Mathieson Architects has a singular approach to architecture, interiors, and landscape.
The house is concealed from the street by mature hedges the residence is entered from a forecourt.
A double-height entry foyer leads to formal living spaces that open onto a park like garden.
An elongated single level pavilion accommodates garaging to the east, and family living spaces to the west.
A loggia connects to a pool, steam room and gym.
The upper level of the house accommodates six bedrooms with bathrooms.
And a basement level accommodates additional parking and service areas.
Living spaces open to the exterior through expansive glazed openings.
Pale white walls and limestone flooring create a palette of calm restraint.
An atmosphere of quiet luxury is further enhanced by accents of dark stained American oak and sandblasted stone walls.
Expansive terraced lawns and reflection ponds integrate the house into the garden.
