Introduction—

Retreat is a sanctuary for all seasons. In Summer, when the sky is bright and the streets are warm, the pristine Elwood foreshore provides the nec-essary dose of sea-salted air and golden sand just 2km away. In Winter, when large jumpers and mugs of chocolate take priority over oceanic horizons, Elsternwick residents fi nd solace in the suburb’s host of award winning restaurants and numerous eclectic cafés; a reminder that pleasure can be found year-round, if only you have the right vantage point.

A unique picturesque Melbourne pocket. Your own private Retreat.

Retreat is the last of the boutique residences available, as the residential zoning of Elsternwick has changed, restricting future development within this tightly held residential mecca.

Architecture—

Retreat is an architectural beauty destined to leave its mark on Elsternwick. Representing a harmonious union of bold, modern materials and warm, softening tones, the exterior façade creates a striking impression through its contemporary combination of light and dark colours, softened by the addition of warm timber lining. Drawing residents inside with a prominent entryway framed in inviting natural materials, Retreat’s overarching sense of contemporary appeal sets the scene for everything inside its walls.

With its emphasis on boutique living, Retreat is limited to 14 residences, each with its own car park and storage shed. Privacy is assured.

Retreat’s interiors are designed to embody exactly that: a place of comfort for residents to retreat to. In particular, Retreat’s living spaces lend themselves to a feeling of restorative calm, achieved through neutral yet modern design principles that allow easy personalisation. Beautifully engineered hardwood fl oors establish the foundation for these spaces, while modern light fi nishes enhance the impression of light and space while inviting personal fl ourishes and individual styling.

Your private terrace is generous enough to act as an extension of the living area, representing the perfect setting for warm-weather entertaining, alfresco dining and sunset drinks. Accessible through expansive fl oor-to-ceiling glass doors, the ambient natural beauty of this outdoor area is able to be enjoyed throughout the seasons, helping to further integrate the outdoors into the home environment.

Capturing the natural light was in the forefront of our architect’s mind throughout the design process.

Retreat


The bedroom and bathroom spaces take inspiration from the minimalist soft luxury present in modern hotel design. In the bedroom, comforting material choices, such as soft wool blend carpets, blend with generous open layouts

and ample natural light to create a peaceful sanctuary for residents. In the bathroom, common sense design principles harmonise with sophisticated material choices to bring about an accommodating abode with a contemporary edge.
