Ideal for a steep, narrow stand, this modern triple-storey home has been designed for easy living and boasts three bedrooms and a guest suite, plus a large deck for entertaining. The exterior is inspired by Balinese architecture, while the interior living areas are centred around a swimming pool which doubles as a water feature. An impressive chrome and glass staircase connects all three floors and has expansive windows on either side to allow natural light to flood in. “The concept was to keep the staircase as transparent as possible with glass balustrades and portions of glass flooring between the levels; it proved difficult to build but the results have been rewarding,” says architect Kyria van Soelen of Sphere Design and Architecture, who designed this stylish home.
